Sampling Measurement Mode
3. If the sampling completion condition is not satisfied after additional 5 points
measurement, thinned-out sampling mode keeps the sampling interval, and
continues sampling measurement. Data is updated as described in step 2.
4. This discarding is repeated until the sampling completion condition is satisfied.
By the end of the measurement, 10 measurement result data is stored in memory.
Parameters
To set up the thinned-out sampling measurement, specify the following parameters
on MEASURE: SAMPLING SETUP page. See Table 2-2.
Parameter Description
MODE
Sampling mode. THINNED OUT.
INITIAL INTERVAL
The sampling interval during thinned-out sampling.
Allowable range: 720
m
s to 65.535 s.
NO.OF SAMPLES
Number of data to be stored by end of measurement.
Maximum: 10001. If there are multiple measurement units,
this value must be 10001/(number of units) or less.
TOTAL SAMP.TIME
Total sampling time. Does not include
HOLD TIME
. This is
the time from the 1st trigger to the sampling completion.
One of the sampling completion conditions, so sampling
stops after this time elapses.

HOLD TIME
Hold time. This is the time from starting source output to
first trigger. If this value is 0, first @TIME value is 0.
