Cycle Averaging (Cycle)
The data from the computation start point to the computation end point is divided into the number of data points
(Cycle Count) that is specified as being a single cycle, and equivalent points in each divided cycle are averaged
with each other. The resulting values are used to display the waveform.
The figure below shows the results of cycle averaging when Cycle Count is set to 720.

Cycle Averaging Results
Equivalent points in each divided cycle are linearly averaged,
and the resulting values are used to display the waveform.
• Cycle Count (Cycle Count)
Set the number of data points in one cycle.
Selectable range: 10 to 1800
• All the data between the computation start and end points can be computed. If the data cannot be divided
evenly by the specified cycle count, the remaining data is ignored.
• Cycle averaging cannot be performed on an FFT waveform.
• Cycle Averaging Example
When the record length is 10 kpoint, the cycle count is 720, the computation start point is −5.000 div, and the
computation end point is +5.000 div
10 k/720 = 13.88... : 13 cycles are used for the computation.
13 × 720 = 9360 : The data from the computation start point (point 1) to point 9360 is included in the cycle
average computation.
