A similar effect can be observed using the OpenLab FPGA-based oscilloscope.
For example, if the oscilloscope captures in ETS mode and the user disables the triggering, the display will get distorted. The result can be seen in figure 2.

Text below images.
The reason for this is similar to the effect described by the Tektronix article [1].
ETS depends very much on repetitive trigger events. The acquisition will not work probably if the limitations of ETS are ignored.

ETS acquires signals by taking samples across multiple trigger events. This “scans” the signal step by step and enables an accurate representation of the captured waveform.
