Equal Guardband t > 330 ns: ±5% guardband < ±(5.1% + 16.5 ns)
t 330 ns: gu
ardband = ±16.5 ns
All pulses, even from the most stable sources, have some amount of jitter. To avoid disqualifying pulses that are intended to qualify but
are not absolutely correct values, we provide an arbitrary guardband. Any measured pulse width within the guardband will qualify. If
looking fo
r pulse width differences that are smaller than the guardband width, offsetting the center should allow discriminating differences
down to the guardband accuracy.

165 ns < t 330 ns: guardband = -16.5 ns/+33 ns
t 165 ns: guardband = ±16.5 ns
All pulse
s, even from the most stable sources, have some amount of jitter. To avoid disqualifying pulses that are intended to qualify but are
not absolutely correct values, we provide an arbitrary guardband. Any measured pulse width outside the guardband will qualify. If looking
for pulse width differences that are smaller than the guardband width, offsetting the center should allow discriminating differences down to
the guar
dband accuracy. Not equal has slightly better ability to deal with small pulse widths than equal. The accuracy is not better.

Pulse width or edge selected trigger source
Frequency counter measures selected trigger source at all times in pulse width and edge mode, including when oscilloscope acquisition is
halt
ed due to changes in run status, or acquisition of a single shot event has completed.
The frequency counter does not measure pulses that do not qualify as legitimate trigger events.
Pulse Width mode: Counts pulses of sufcient magnitude inside the 250 ms measurement window that qualify as triggerable events (e.g.
all
narrow pulses in a PWM pulse train if set to < mode and the limit is set to a relatively small number).
Edge Trigger mode: Counts all pulses of sufcient magnitude.
