All these settings are well and accurate explained in this operators manual. This manual is just as all manuals from TEK (old times) just different if compare today cheap scopes "manual". Tek manual is nearly perfect. Nobody write this kind of manuals for today (cheap) scopes example as rigol or other this kind of toys. (but still useable for many hobby use)

If you want single shot digi capture you need also remember single shot limits for 20Ms/s maximum.
As eevblog tell. Trig single, mode norm, trig source (what you use) trig (horizontal) position, and trig level (you need know what voltage level you want trig and set this level, and slope direction of course. Then start and you see Trig'd led light (ready for find trig) and after it find state where trig this led go off (in single shot mode). (trig control settings quick info you find manual part 1 starting side 3-9. More deep info you need read more this huge manual.
(but remember digital storage mode and normal mode differencies (and digitizing) single shot record limits. These you can all find in manual.
Nice scope for low freq signals... and it have 10 bit resolution!
Specially Tek scopes (specially these older models and more specially pure analog (high-end) scopes) have maybe best trig system what can find in older scopes. Just trig is this secret why there is old phrase: If you need good oscilloscope you have 3 posibilities... 1. Tek, 2. Tek, 3. Tek, and today it is still meaningfull for good old analog scopes and also some digital scopes (real vector CRT models)
(and ... it is not only speedmeter maximum in car and sampling speed speed and color screen in scope what is meaningful for thinking value as tool.)
