To disable or re-enable vectors 1 Press [Display] key on the front panel. 2 Press Type softkey to toggle between Vectors and Dots. When Vectors are enabled, Vectors draw a line between consecutive waveform data points. ? Vectors give an analog look to a digitized waveform. Complex analog signals like video and modulated signals show analog-like intensity information with vectors. ? Vectors allow you to see steep edges on waveforms, such as square waves. ? Vectors allow subtle detail of complex waveforms to be viewed, much like an analog oscilloscope trace, even when the detail is just a small number of pixels. You may want to turn vectors off when highly complex or multivalued waveforms are displayed. Turning vectors off may aid the display of multivalued waveforms such as eye diagrams. Having vectors on does not slow down the display rate. Digital channels on a mixed-signal oscilloscope are not affected by the Vectors setting. They are always displayed with vectors on. They also only contain one acquisition worth of information.
