Analysis
Reading only the actual measurement point/Reading the value
interpolated between measurement points
The point on the trace on which a marker can be placed differs depending on how the
discrete marker mode is set up.
Turning on discrete
mode
(
Discrete ON
)
A marker moves only between actual measurement points. When a
specific marker stimulus value is specified as a numerical value, the
marker is placed at the measurement point closest to the specified
value. A marker that is placed between interpolated points with the
discrete mode off automatically moves to the nearest measurement
point when the discrete mode is turned on.
Turning off discrete
mode
(
Discrete OFF
)
The marker can move from one actual measurement point to
another. Because it is interpolated, it can also move in the space
between measurement points.
