This feature works in conjunction with Keyboard Triggering when Auto Re-arm is being
used. Auto Re-arm is discussed on page 4-39.
If the option is disabled, acquisition data is saved to disk, and the device automatically
re-arms. ChartView displays the Trigger dialog box and waits for the trigger button to be
pressed by the user before beginning the next acquisition.
If the option is enabled (

automatically sent to the acquisition device. The automatic trigger may be delayed by up
to 2 seconds (after the previous acquisition has finished).
