Oscilloscope
Touching the display will produce a vertical index line, which will show the value at that point. The value is arbitrary, as there is automatic gain control on the input so the trace does not get clipped. The display will respond to scroll and scale gestures. The index can be removed and scaling reset by touching the Start icon.
Touch the left edge Y scale to adjust the sync level. A pointer will appear which can be adjusted by sliding up and down. Touch the start icon to reset the level to zero.
In single shot mode the timebase may be changed to zoom in and pan left and right using the right and left icons.
Spectrum
The spectrum display shows a spectrum with a logarithmic frequency scale. An index line shows the dominant frequency in the input. The frequency and input level is also displayed in the toolbar. To lock the display, touch spectrum display or the lock icon in the toolbar. Touch it again to release the lock. To display the help screen, touch the help icon.
