Now set the
Current Seg = 500
using the Entry knob (last captured
segment/waveform).
Along with capturing consecutive low duty cycle signal bursts, the scope also
“time-tags” each segment/waveform so that you know the time of each capture
segment/waveform relative to the first captured segment/waveform. Time-tags
are shown in the lower left-hand corner of the display. Segment #500 should have
a time-tag of approximately 2 seconds along with a time-of-day stamp as shown
in
. The captured waveform should also have very high resolution
because the scope used a high sample rate to capture each waveform. If you
attempted to capture ~2 s (200 ms/div) of time-span using the scope’s Normal
acquisition mode, the scope would have significantly reduced its sample rate and
thereby would have provided extremely poor sample resolution on each burst.
Segmented Memory acquisition optimizes oscilloscope acquisition memory by
only capturing waveform data around small portions (or segments) of a signal (a
short sine wave burst in this case). The scope does not capture unimportant signal
idle-time between each burst. Segmented Memory acquisition can also be a very
