Channel Mode Field
Touching the Channel Mode field in the Waveform Selection field causes a
pop-up menu to appear. This pop-up shows the channel mode selections
available. The Channel Mode field lets you select how the waveform will be
displayed. The options are Single mode, Overlay mode, Chan+Chan mode,
and Chan−Chan mode.
Single Mode
This mode displays a single input channel in each waveform display area for
which it is selected. It is the default mode for the oscilloscope module. This
mode is also the only one that displays voltage markers.
Overlay Mode
This is a waveform mode that lets you take the signal from one channel input
and compare it to the signal from another (or several other) channel input.
It lets you put multiple waveforms on the same waveform display area − or
overlay the waveforms.
Waveforms from separate modules cannot be overlaid when making an
intermodule measurement.
