Zooming Waveforms

Overview

You can magnify a selected region of a waveform using the Zoom function.
On Zi model oscilloscopes, you can display up to four Zoom (Z1 - Z4) and
eight Math Zoom traces (F1 - F8). You can zoom:

A single channel - covered in To Zoom a Single Channel

(on

page

)

.

A math or memory trace - known as Zooming Memory or Math
Function Traces
.

Multiple waveforms at once - covered in To Zoom Multiple
Waveforms Quickly

(on

page 94

)

.

Segments in a sequence - found in Sampling Modes → Sequence
Sampling Mode

(on

page 53

)

You can also use the Multi-Zoom Math function to create time-locked zoom
traces for selected waveforms. For more information, refer to Math →
Multi-Zoom
).

At any time, you can zoom a portion of a channel waveform or
Memory/Math function trace by touching and dragging a rectangle around
any part of the input waveform, see the To Zoom by Touch-and-Drag

topic. The zoom trace will size itself to fit the full width of the grid.

The degree of magnification, therefore, will depend on the size of the
rectangle that you draw.

You can also use the front panel Q

button to create multiple

zooms, one for each displayed input channel. For more information, see

Previewing Zoomed Waveforms

When you zoom a waveform, a preview of the zoomed area is shown on
the Preview section of the Zx dialog.
