Push  twice
Push  to start the acquisition.
When the capture and transfer bars turn from white to green the data has been
captured and can be analyzed with or exported to an external memory
device for analysis elsewhere. To export the data to a file, push  to
access data transfer options. See the screen below:
Table 11. Digitize Example 2 (cont.)
The sample rate is equal to 1/Timer, or 50 kHz
Count determines the number of samples that will
be taken. The count of 10 000 will cause 10 000
samples to trigger before the Trigger subsystem
returns to the Idle state.
Setting Delay to zero ensures that if Delay and
Holdoff settings add to more than the trigger
period, they would cause the trigger rate to be
slower than 1/Timer.
The holdoff period occurs after the acquisition
starts but if longer than the trigger interval, it
causes the trigger rate to be slower than 1/Timer.
Returns to the Digitize function.
The Product captures 10,000 readings and saves
data to memory.
