Example:
Figure 6-30: Continuous gating for a gate period count of 9
Continuous gating is useful, for example, if you want to measure a periodic signal
which occurs after a specific trigger event. Using gate periods, you can average the
individual periods of the signal for several trigger events.
Continuous gating can also improve the measurement speed, as you no longer have to
wait for the next external trigger events, but can measure several periodic bursts after
a single trigger event.
Settings for continuous gate periods are defined in a separate tab of the "Trigger / Gate
Config" dialog box (see
Chapter 6.6.2.3, "Continuous gate settings"
