ACQUISITIONMODE
The Acquiring Mode menu is described in the Table shown below.
Function menu Settings
Description
Sample The waveform data sampling time interval. The
sample mode accurately reconstructs the waveform,
but cannot respond to rapid changes and sudden
peaks.
Peak Detect 50ns
max.
The peak detect mode captures rapid changes and
sudden peaks.
Average Multiple samples are averaged. The average mode
reduces the noise level (for best results, the waveform
must be repetitive)
Averages 4, 16, 64
or 128
Select the number of samples to average
DISPLAYSETTING
The Display Setting menu is described in the following table.
