Acquisition Modes
Single sweep
Triggered acquisition to on
-
board memory without sample rate limitations; for single
transients or intermittent phenomena. No aggregate sample rate limitations.
Multiple sweeps
Triggered acquisition to on
-
board memory without sample rate limitations; for repetitive
transients or intermittent phenomena. No aggregate sample rate limitations.
Slow
-
Fast Sweep
Identical to single sweep acquisition with additional support for fast sample rate switches
during the post
-
trigger segment of the slow rate single sweep settings. No aggregate sample
rate limitations.
Continuous
Direct storage to PC or mainframe controlled hard disk without file size limitations; triggered
or un
-
triggered; for long duration recorder type applications. Aggregate sample rate
limitations depend on Ethernet speed, PC used and data storage media used.
Dual
Combination of Multiple sweeps and Continuous; recorder type streaming to hard disk with
simultaneously triggered sweeps in on
-
board memory. Aggregate sample rate limitations
depend on Ethernet speed, PC used and data storage media used.

Single Sweep
Pre
-
trigger segment
0% to 100% of selected sweep length
If trigger occurs before the pre
-
trigger segment is recorded, the pre
-
trigger segment is
truncated to recorded data only.
Delayed trigger
Maximum 1000 seconds after a trigger occurred. The sweep is recorded immediately after
a delayed trigger time with 100% post
-
trigger after this time point.
Sweep stretch
User selectable On/Off
When enabled, any new trigger event occurring in the post
-
trigger segment of the sweep
restarts the post
-
trigger length. If, upon the detection of a new trigger, the extended post
-
trigger does not fit within the sweep memory, sweep stretch does not happen. The maximum
sweep stretch rate is 1 sweep stretch per 2.5 ms.
