Description
1st-order integration
(INT)
2nd-order integration
(INT2)
To calculate values of 1st-order and 2nd-order integration, the instrument uses the
trapezoidal formula.
The instrument integrates data

to
d
n
considering them as the corresponding data for
the sampling time t

to t
n
.

Note Integration is susceptible to minor deviation of the zero-position. Be sure to
execute zero-adjustment before performing a measurement. In addition, zero-
point offset correction may be required.
Example: To adjust the zero point by 0.124 mV
Z1 = INT (CH1-0.000124)
Waveform shifting
by PLC delay time
specified in digital
voltmeter module
(PLCS)
The instrument shifts a waveform by a frequency (PLC) specified in a digital voltmeter
module and a delay time of PLCS.
Since digital voltmeter modules calculate averages during periods specified in the
NPLC setting, observed waveforms will lag behind waveforms acquired with Model
8966 Analog Unit by a half of the NPLC setting.
The PLCS calculation advances the waveforms acquired with the digital voltmeter
module by the delay time and thus compensates the results for the lag behind the
waveforms acquired with Model 8966.
Note If the end of the calculation result contains no data, this part measures a voltage
of 0 V.
