Description
Persistence
Sets the length of time data points are displayed on screen before being erased.
Off sets the record points to appear for the current acquisition only.
Infinite continuously accumulates record points on the waveform until you change one of the
acquisition display settings or clear the acquisition memory. Use infinite persistence for displaying
record points that may occur outside the normal acquisition envelope.
Variable lets you specify a time length to retain data points on screen. Each record point decays
independently according to the time interval.
Auto sets the Waveform Intensity field to control the persistence time.
Variable Persistence Time
(Persistence = Variable)
Sets the length of time data points remain displayed. Tap the field and use the A knob to adjust, or
double-tap and use the keypad to set a time.
Waveform Style
Sets how waveforms are drawn on the screen.
Vectors draws waveforms with lines between record points.
Dots draws waveform record points as dots on the screen, and adds crosshair markers to real
sampled points.
