The Autoset function examines all channels for signals and displays corresponding waveforms. Autoset
determines the trigger source according to the following conditions.
If multiple channels receive signals, the oscilloscope will use the channel with the lowest
frequency signal as the trigger source.
If no signals are found, the oscilloscope will use the lowest-numbered channel displayed in
Autoset as the trigger source.
If no signals are found and no channels are displayed, the oscilloscope will display and use
Channel 1 as the trigger source.
Sine Wave:
When the Autoset function is used and the oscilloscope determines that the signal is similar to a sine
wave, the oscilloscope displays the following options:
Sine Wave Options Details
Multi-cycle Sine Display multiple cycles that have appropriate vertical and horizontal scales.
Single-cycle Sine Set the horizontal scale to display approx. one cycle of waveform.
FFT
Convert the input time-domain signal to its frequency components and
display the result as a graph of frequency versus amplitude (spectrum). See
Section 5.3.1 Math FFT for more information.
Cancel Setup Allow the oscilloscope to recall the previous setup.
Square Wave or Pulse:
When the Autoset function is used and the oscilloscope determines that the signal is similar to a square
wave or pulse, the oscilloscope displays the following options:
Square Wave Options Details
Multi-cycle Square Display multiple cycles that have appropriate vertical and horizontal scales.
Single-cycle Square
Set the horizontal scale to display approx. one cycle of waveform. The
oscilloscope displays Min., Mean and Positive Width automatic
measurements.
Rising Edge Display the rising edge.
Falling Edge Display the falling edge.
Cancel Setup Allow the oscilloscope to recall the previous setup.
