Well....I read over most of that document....very good. =20

Still confused about those "Single Shot" things....would a TX/RX on say =
the Serial port show up if setup to trigger?  Or would the next wave of =
nothing overwrite it?

I guess what I'm asking is can an Analog O'Scope be setup to keep =
displaying a screen once a trigger is set on a channel?

Maybe an example....
I set up the scope to trigger when channel one goes to 5v...the total =
screen covers 100 ms.
When channel one goes to 5v I want it to show me that 5 volt pulse and the =
next 100ms....nothing else.  Both Channel 1 and 2 are showed. =20

Maybe I'm asking to much...maybe I need to look for both a scope and a =
logic analyzer?

Thanks for the step in the right direction!

Tim,

For some reason my messages are bouncing off the list.  I think the =
problem=20
is that I've recently changed emails.

Anyway, the best reference I've seen for learning how to use an oscilloscop=
e=20
is Tektronix's "XYZs of Oscilloscopes".  It should be downloadable from=20
their web site at=20
http://www.tek.com/Measurement/fundamentals/scopes/literature/XYZs_of_Scope=
s_English.pdf=20

It is 60 some pages long.  Explains everything you need to know to get=20
started.  Of course it is Tek-centric but you will get the idea.

Forward this to piclist if you wish.
