• If the stop trigger activates, the PLC will continue to take samplings for the specified No. of
delay, and then stop the sampling operation.
• Once the sampling operation stops, the data will be automatically retrieved by the tool
software and will be indicated in a time chart.
• The number of samples before and after the trigger point can be adjusted by the number of
delay. For the initial settings (number of samples: 1000, number of delay: 100), the number
of samples before and after the trigger point is 900 and 100 respectively.
