Toggle Count
This key is active only if the Accumulate Mode is set to Toggle. The Tog-
gle Count is the number of records accumulated in one mode (add or
subtract) before switching to the opposite mode. For example, if the Tog-
gle Count equals 4, then the first 4 records are added, the next 4 records
are subtracted, the next 4 are added, etc. , until the scan is complete. In
general, the Toggle count should be set so that a complete scan has an
equal number of records added and subtracted. If the Toggle Count is
greater than the Records/Scan, then all records will be added but the
maximum accumulation per bin will still be 16,383.
Pause at Toggle
This key is active only if the Accumulate Mode is set to Toggle. If Yes is
selected, then data acquisition pauses whenever the accumulate mode
toggles between add and subtract. This is useful if the experiment takes
time to change modes. Use the [START] key to continue data acquisi-
tion. If No is selected, data acquisition runs without pause until the scan
is completed.
ReAcquire
The ReAcquire key will restore the display buffer with data from the data
acquisition memory. The total accumulated record of data is always avail-
able in the data acquisition memory while in the DONE state. When the
[STOP/RESET] key is used to reset to the CLEAR state, all accumulated
data is lost.
The number of bins transferred to the display memory for graphing and
analysis is equal to the Bins/Record. This data may be changed using
the MATH menu functions. For example, the data may be squared, multi-
plied by a constant, normalized, etc. These operations alter the data in
the display memory. The ReAcquire function will restore the display
memory to the original count data stored in the data acquisition memory.
From Offset
The ReAcquire function re-reads data from the data acquisition memory
into the display memory. The acquisition memory stores a number of
data points equal to the Trigger Bins/Record while ReAcquire
reads only the number of data points equal to the Bins/Record. ReAc-
quire skips the number of bins specified in the From Offset field at the be-
ginning of the acquisition memory before transferring data to the display
memory. A simplified memory map is shown below.
