Analog Offset

Also called DC offset. This valuable feature can give you back the vertical resolution that would otherwise be lost when measuring small signals.

Analog offset adds a DC voltage to the input signal, allowing a more sensitive range to be used if the signal would otherwise be out of range of the scope’s analog-to-digital converter (ADC); effectively allowing you to magnify a small section of the signal.
