6 Acquisition and waveform setup
6.1 Horizontal setup
The "Horizontal" dialog provides the time base configuration for channel and spectrum
waveforms.
6.1.1 About the horizontal system
Horizontal settings, also known as timebase settings, adjust the waveforms in horizon-
tal direction.
Typically, the trigger is the determining point of the waveform record. In many scenar-
ios, you want to analyze the waveform some time before or after the trigger. To adjust
the horizontal acquisition window to the waveform section of interest, you can use the
following parameters:
●
The horizontal position defines the time distance of the trigger point (the zero
point of the diagram) to the reference point. Changing the horizontal position, you
can move the trigger point, even outside the screen.
●
The reference point is the rescaling center of the time scale on the screen. If you
modify the time scale, the reference point remains fixed on the screen, and the
scale is stretched or compressed to both sides of the reference point.
Unlike vertical settings, which are waveform-specific, the horizontal settings apply to all
active waveforms.
Timebase settings are interdependent:
Timebase range = Time scale * Number of divisions
