Hi,
I am using InfiniiVision MSO7104A scope, and find that, from time to time,"horizontal position control" **** stops working.
What i am doing is that, I have a signal running in one of the channels, and I press "Run/Stop" to stop acquiring data. Then I can pan across and zoom in on the acquired data. I use "horizontal position control" **** to pan across. This **** would work quite well for some time, before it stops working. When it stops working, other knobs/ buttons still works: I can still zoom-in/ zoom-out etc, but I cannot move the waveform left/ right.
I don't know how to make this "horizontal position control" **** work again. Normally i would power off and on the scope, after which this **** works normally again. But the problem is that my previous captured waveform is gone, and i have to do a new capture.
Any idea on how to make "horizontal position control" **** work again without power-cycling the scope?
Thanks.

If you have the latest, then you may have a HW problem.
You don't say how far you pan, or how fast. There may be a SW problem, in that you are overflowing some internal counter. In any case, I have never heard of this before, and I doubt there will be a new version of SW released.
