Abstract
According to a method and apparatus for displaying data on a display screen, such as the screen of a digital storage oscilloscope, in a ROLL mode and prior to a trigger event, newly acquired data is continuously newly displayed at a given point on the screen as the oldest displayed data is rolled off the screen at a first side. This is continued even during a REFRESH mode until a trigger event occurs, at which time the displayed data is frozen on the screen and newly acquired data is written across the screen toward a second side of the screen, so that at the time the newly acquired data is written to the second end of the screen, data is observable which represents a certain period before the trigger event and after the trigger event.
