Trigger Settings
In contrast to the continuous measurements, which are always recorded, the so-called
triggered recordings are only stored when the respective trigger is activated and the
trigger threshold is exceeded.
For every virtual instrument which is a triggered recording type a trigger settings panel is
provided. These are:
1. RMS
2. Oscilloscope
3. Transient
4. Ripple Control Signal
5. Harmonics
6. Interharmonics
7. Time
Activate the triggers by right clicking into the respective fields.
The recordings are done as defined in “Settings Recording Modes”.
Red indicator: there is no threshold defined for this
trigger
Green indicator: there is a threshold defined for this
trigger
An event might meet more than one trigger condition. We recommend selecting only
those triggers that best correspond to the event to be recorded, rather than activating too
many triggers.
All recordings are done as specified in the Recording Modes panel.
