Explanation
Normally, the display is updated every time a trigger is activated making it difficult to
capture transient conditions such as sudden distortion of waveforms. By using the
accumulate function, the waveform display of the acquired data remains on the screen
for the specified time.
Accumulate Mode
Persist: Persistence mode. Waveforms are accumulated in red. Waveforms are
displayed for the specified time period by gradually lowering the brightness.
Accumulate Time (Count)
When using persistence mode, set the number of times to accumulate the waveforms in
the range of 2 to 128 (in 2
n
steps). If you select Infinite, the accumulation is carried out
infinitely. The default value is 16.
