If you set a number less than the number of memory partitions in the trigger mode, you
will have to specify the number of memory blocks to use. If you set a number larger than
the number of memory partitions, the data is acquired until the specified number is
reached or until the specified record length is reached.
In the gate mode, measured data is acquired by taking the specified record length to be
one block. When the specified record length is “maximum record length/256” or less and
the number of acquisitions is set to 256 or less, all of the acquired data are saved.
However, if the number of acquisition is set above 256, the acquired data beyond the
256
th
acquisition overwrites the previous data starting from the first acquisition. If the
record length is set above “maximum record length/256” points, the data is overwritten
when the number of acquisitions exceeds (maximum record length/specified record
length).
Note
• If the number of acquisitions is greater than the number of memory partitions in the trigger
mode, only the last “number of memory partitions” blocks of measured data are saved. In
addition, you can only specify 1 for the number of acquisitions if the number of memory
partitions is set to 1.
• If (the number of acquisitions
×
record length
×
the number of measurement channels
*
) is “4M”
points or less, and the number of acquisitions exceeds 256, then only the last 256 blocks of
measured data are saved. If (the number of acquisitions
×
record length
×
the number of
measurement channels
*
) exceeds “4M” points, only the last “4M/(record length
×
the number of
measurement channels)” blocks of measured data are saved. (* When the number of measure-
ment channels is 3, it is considered to be 4.)
• If the specified record length is greater than or equal to “the maximum record length/2” in the
gate mode, you can only specify 1 for the number of acquisitions.
• You can set 0 by using the WE Control API (sold separately, model: 707741). If you select 0,
the acquisition of data continues until the measurement is stopped or the specified record
length of data is acquired. This function is not supported on the WE7000 Control Software. For
details, see the WE Control API User’s Manual (IM707741-61E).
Number of Measurement Channels (CH Mode)
The maximum record length can be changed by restricting the number of measurement
channels. The number of measurement channels can be set to 4 channels (no
restriction), 2 channels, or 1 channel. The maximum record length is set to 1 Mword for
4 channels, 2 Mwords for 2 channels, and 4 Mwords for 1 channel.
Time Base
You can select whether to sample the input signal with the specified sampling interval
based on the module’s internal clock or to sample with the time base signal (CMNCLK)
*
of the measuring station (BUSCLK setting).
*
For setting procedures, see section 4.6 “Setting the Trigger Source/Time Base/Arming” in the
WE7000 User’s Manual (IM707001-01E).
Note
You can set the time base for the FFT by using the WE Control API (sold separately, model:
707741). This function is not supported on the WE7000 Control Software. For details, see the
WE Control API User’s Manual (IM707741-61E).
