			'''Features'''

			* Modern CRT-based Basic Real-time & Storage Oscilloscope
			* Exclusive one-shot and intermittent phenomena are simple to capture using the digital storage function.
			* Using the pre-trigger function, it is possible to observe the rising edge of a waveform which occurs before the trigger occurs.
			* Non-repeating events can be observed as clean waveform using the digital storage function.
			* Low-speed phenomena can be observed as a trace using the digital storage function (roll mode).
			* External plotter functionality enables hardcopies of CRT waveform data.
			* Averaging can be used to reduce noise, providing summary signal of interest.
			* Captured waveform can be saved to internal memory and recalled for comparison.
			* RS-232C serial interface usable to transfer stored waveform data.
			* Dual cursors can be enabled to make accurate measurements of voltage, time, and frequency.
			* After waveform capture, it can be displayed in expanded form with interpolation (linear or sine).
			* Using sweep time auto-ranging, the sweep rate setting automatically optimised in accordance with the input signal frequency.
			* Trigger lock hold the sum of the hold-off time and sweep time for stable trigger of complex pulse trains.
			* Frequency of the channel selected as the trigger signal is automatically counted.
