3. Sample
For each trace point, Sample detector displays the transient level
corresponding to the central time point of the corresponding time interval.
This detector type is applicable to noise or noise-like signal.
4. Normal
Normal detector (also called rosenfell detector) displays the maximum value and
the minimum value of the sample data segment in turn, namely for an
odd-numbered data point, the maximum value is displayed; and for an
even-numbered data point, the minimum value is displayed. In this way, the
amplitude variation range of the signal is clearly shown.
5. RMS Avg
For each data point, perform mean square root operation (see the equation
below) of the sample data within the corresponding time interval and display
the result. In this type, noise can be rejected and weak signals can be clearly
observed.
