3.7 Starting and Stopping Waveform Acquisition
Procedure
Starting or Stopping Waveform Acquisition.
Press
RUN/STOP
key to start or stop waveform acquisition.
The key is illuminated while the DLM2000 is acquiring waveforms.
Acquiring Waveforms Using a Single Trigger
Press
SINGLE
key to start waveform acquisition.
The key is illuminated while the DLM2000 is acquiring waveforms.
The DLM2000 acquires waveforms once when it is triggered and then stops waveform
acquisition.
To cancel waveform acquisition, press
RUN/STOP
key.
If you set the record length to a value that allows only one waveform to be acquired,
pressing
RUN/STOP
key will produce the same result as pressing SINGLE key.
Explanation
Waveform Acquisition and Indicators
• When RUN/STOP key or SINGLE key is illuminated, the DLM2000 is acquiring
waveforms. "Running" appears at the upper left of the screen.
• When RUN/STOP key and SINGLE key are not illuminated, the waveform acquisition
is stopped. "Stopped" appears at the upper left of the screen.
DLM2000 Operation When the Acquisition Mode Is Set to Averaging
• Averaging stops when you stop waveform acquisition.
• If you restart waveform acquisition again, averaging starts from the beginning.
RUN and STOP Operations during Accumulation
• Accumulation stops when you stop waveform acquisition.
• If you restart waveform acquisition, past waveforms are cleared, and accumulation
starts over.
Note
• If you start waveform acquisition using RUN/STOP, past data stored in the acquisition
memory is cleared.
• You can use the snapshot feature to retain the displayed waveform on the screen. This
feature allows you to retain a waveform on the screen while the DLM2000 continues signal
acquisition.
