Channel Setup toolbar
The Channel Setup toolbar controls the settings for each vertical input channel .
The screen shot below shows the toolbar for a four-channel scope device , but
different scope devices may have different numbers of channels.
Each channel has its own set of buttons:
Scale Control. Determines the maximum and minimum signal
levels at the top and bottom of the Y axis for this channel. The
number of options depends on the selected scope device and
probe . If you select Auto, PicoScope will continually adjust the
vertical scale so that the height of the waveform fills as much of
the view as possible.
Coupling Control. Selects AC coupling or DC coupling .
Advanced Options button. Opens the Probe drop-down menu
to allow you to select a probe for this channel.

Probe Drop-Down menu
The Probe drop-down menu appears when you click the Advanced Options
button on the Channels toolbar . Use it to tell PicoScope what type of probe is
connected to a channel. By default, the probe is assumed to be x1, which means that
a one-volt signal at the input to the probe will appear as one volt on the display.
Expand probe list. Click this to select from a list of probes.
Open Custom Probes dialog. The Custom Probes dialog allows you to edit
your library of custom probes.
