Acquiring to Segmented Memory
Segmented memory is available on DSOX1200-Series models.
When capturing multiple infrequent trigger events it is advantageous to divide the
oscilloscope's memory into segments. This lets you capture signal activity without
capturing long periods of signal inactivity.
Each segment is complete with all analog channel and serial decode data.
When using segmented memory, use the Analyze Segments feature (see
Persistence with Segmented Memory"
on page 142) to show infinite persistence
across all acquired segments. See also
for details.
To acquire to
segmented
memory
1
Set up a trigger condition. (See
, “Triggers,” starting on page 97 for
details.)
2
Press the
[Acquire]
key in the Waveform section of the front panel.
3
Press the
Segmented
softkey.
4
In the Segmented Mem menu, press the
Segmented
softkey to enable
segmented memory acquisitions.
5
Press the
# of Segs
softkey and turn the Entry knob to select the number of
segments into which you would like to divide the oscilloscope's memory.
Memory can be divided into as few as two segments and as many as 500
segments.
