3.3 Time Interval Measurement
Interval 1 to 2 measures the length of the duration between a start event
on channel 1 and a stop event on channel 2. Auto triggering is enabled by

and change the trigger levels and slopes settings (refer to Ch.4.8).

2. Press TIME&PERIOD button.

function.
4. Optional settings:
