Buttons turn the display of the trace ON or OFF. To get the cursor
measurements of CH2 voltage values switch CH1 off.
COUPLING
AC: the input signal is capacitive coupled to the input amplifier/attenuator. Only
the AC components are measured.
GND: (not for K8031) the input signal is b roken and the input
amplifier/attenuator is connected to earth. Use this position for selecting a
reference point on the display.
DC: the input signal is directly connected to the input amplifier/attenuator. Both
AC and DC voltage are measured.
TIME/DIV

screen.
Selection of TIME/DIV is possible to zoom in on the frozen waveform display.
RUN
Selects recurrent display update mode (RUN). Pressing the button again
