centimeters in amplitude. If the display of the second trace is
not visible, adjust the POSITION potentiometer on the righthand
vertical amplifier to place the display in the lower half of the
graticule area. Then press the VERT MODE ALT switch in. The
dual trace display should appear on the crt. Note that the VERT
MODE CHOP switch would produce a somewhat similar display.
Finally, set the TIME/DIV OR DLY TIME switch on the dual time
base for a display of the desired number of cycles of the input
signal.
(c) Delayed SweepSingle Trace Display. The following
procedures will produce a delayed sweep display of the input
signal to one vertical amplifier on one trace by the dual time
base.
Perform the complete singletrace display procedure as outlined
in paragraph 2d(2)(a) on page 150, with the exception of setting
display of the desired number of cycles of the input signal.
Instead, set the TIME/DIV OR DLY TIME switch so that the portion
of the sweep to be magnified is near the center of the graticule
area. Now pull the delayed time/division switch out to the stop
and turn it clockwise to a higher rate setting (to perhaps the
second or third position; this will be adjusted later). One
portion of the trace should be displayed at a higher intensity
level. If necessary, adjust the INTENSITY potentiometer for the
desired viewing level. Now adjust the DELAY TIME MULT dial
potentiometer to move the intensified portion of the trace to
cover the portion of the display to be examined. Then adjust
the settings of the TIME/DIV OR DLY TIME switch, and the delayed
time/division switch, for desired sweep rates for the main and
delayed sweeps. Finally, push the delayed time/division switch
in. The section of the trace that was previously intensified
(delayed sweep) should be expanded to cover the entire graticule
horizontal scale.
If the waveform segment to be examined is not steady, it may be
necessary to turn the DLY'D TRIG potentiometer counterclockwise
(out of the switch detent) to allow the delayed sweep triggering
on some portion of the signal to be examined. In that case, the
point on the signal at which the triggering occurs is selectable
by the position of the DLY'D TRIG potentiometer.
