Run Mode
The scope has three main running modes, Run, Stop and Single.
Run mode continuously captures (triggered) waveforms in a FIFO
buffer. Each waveform that is captured can be replayed when the
scope is in the Stop mode. The number of waveforms that are
captured depends on the sample rate and the memory length.
Stop mode stops capturing waveforms and allows you to view any
waveform that was previously captured in the Run mode.
Single mode captures a single waveform as soon as the trigger
conditions are met.
Run/Stop and Single Key Overview
The Run/Stop key shows the Run/Stop status, the record progress
of the captured waveforms and the navigation keys for navigating
captured waveforms when in the Stop mode.
