As you look across the screen, you'll see 9 vertical lines dividing
the whole sweep into 10 equal pieces. The space (i.e. time) between
each of those lines is referred to as a "division". So, when you're
set to the max sweep rate of 0.05 uS/div, the total sweep time is 10
times that or 0.5 uS.

Yep, you just get a closer look at the center 10% of the screen.

Sorry, I don't have a recommendation for a web site. I'm sure that
someone will, though. :=)
