Function
Under normal conditions, the instrument constantly samples the input signal at 10 MS/s,
extracts values according to the T/div setting from the sampled data, and writes to the
acquisition memory.
However, when using the box average function, the sampling data is not extracted. Instead, the
moving average values of a certain number of data points are written to the acquisition memory
as shown in the following figure.
