optionally store data. When defined, these conditions are stored with the setup and are
accessed when the setup is selected and set into motion.
13.1.1.3.2.
In the “

WATERFALL, or TIME per your requirements. WATERFALL is the default selection.

specified amount of time, data collection will terminate allowing you to proceed to the
next condition. A setting of “0” will allow the analyzer to acquire data until terminated by
