PhaseStation 53100A User’s Manual V1.04 25-Apr-2022 54
In the example at left, two copies of
the same 3600-sample .TIM file have
been loaded. The
blue trace was
rendered with the default Bin
Threshold
of 4, while the shorter
magenta trace was rendered with Bin
Threshold set to 2000. Enabling
Trace → Show xDEV error bars ( Ctrl-e )
reveals the blue trace’s low
confidence at its longest tau.
Generally, as long as
Trace →Clip xDEV traces by confidence (
Ctrl-v
)
is enabled, it will
not be necessary to alter the Bin Threshold value to display xDEV trace data of good
statistical quality. The default bin threshold and clipping options will suffice for almost
all measurements, particularly those made at high data rates by instruments such as the
PhaseStation 53100A.
