I'm trying to measure the frequency of a pulse train from a hall effect mounted up in my homemade anemometer, a.k.a. "The UFO", with WinScope. I can see the pulse train just fine and there's a hold button that allows me to trap a set of pulses and do the math, but I seem to remember from years gone by using the trigger to get a stable display while a pulse train was still running.
WinScope has a trigger on/off button with adjacent pos or neg buttons and a trigger level slide, but I've tried all possible variations of the above and it just keeps running free across the screen .....
It's been a quarter century or more since I last twisted the knobs on a scope so it's entirely possible I'm doing something stupid. If anyone can point me to whatever it is I'd sure like to know!
Thanx,
SP
