H Applying a negative offset moves the vertical range down relative to the DC
level of the input signal. Likewise, applying a positive offset moves the
vertical range up. See Figure 3--3.

Horizontal Acquisition Window Considerations. The instrument lets you define the
horizontal acquisition window, that is, set several parameters that determine the
segment of an incoming signal that becomes the waveform record when
acquired. (For background, read Waveform Recor d on page 3--41.) These
common parameters specify a horizontal acquisition window that is applied to all
channels in parallel. (See Independent vs. Shared Window on page 3--26.) These
parameters are:
H The trigger condition that you set up determines the point on the waveform
that triggers the instrument.
H Horizontal position also determines the number of pretrigger and posttrigger
samples; samples before the reference point are pretrigger samples and those
after the reference are posttrigger samples.
