Measurements, statistics, and infinite persistence
To perform measurements and view statistical information, press [Quick Meas] and set
up your desired measurements. (See “List of Automatic Measurements” on page 192.)
Then press Analyze Segments. Statistical data will be accumulated for the
measurements you have chosen.
The Analyze Segments softkey only appears when the acquisition is stopped and the
optional segmented memory feature is on.
You can also turn on infinite persistence (in the Display Menu) and press the Analyze
Segments softkey to create an infinite persistence display.
Re-arm time
After each segment fills, the oscilloscope re-arms and is ready to trigger in about 8 s.
Remember though, for example: if the horizontal time per division control is set to
5 s/div, and the Time Reference is set to Center, it will take at least 50 s to fill all ten
divisions and re-arm. (That’s 25 s to capture pre-trigger data and 25 s to capture
post-trigger data.)
