You can also make time measurements between events on selected
segments using the full precision of the acquisition timebase.
Sequence mode offers a number of unique capabilities:
You can acquire up to four channels simultaneously.
You can minimize dead time between trigger events for consecutive
segments.
You can view time stamps for acquisitions.
You can zoom segments or used them as input to math functions.
You can combine sequence mode with an advanced trigger to
isolate a rare event, capture all instances over hours or days, and
view/analyze each afterwards.
You can use Sequence mode in remote operation to take full
advantage of the instrument's high data-transfer capability.
In Sequence mode, the complete waveform consists of a number of fixed-
size segments acquired in single-shot mode (see the instrument
specifications for the limits). The oscilloscope uses the sequence timebase
setting to determine the capture duration of each segment as 10 x
time/div. With this setting, the oscilloscope uses the desired number of
segments, maximum segment length, and total available memory to
determine the actual number of samples or segments, and time or points.
