5 SETTINGS
Oscillography records contain waveforms captured at the sampling rate as well as other relay data at the point of trigger.
Oscillography records are triggered by a programmable FlexLogic operand. Multiple oscillography records may be captured
simultaneously.
The is selectable, but the number of cycles captured in a single record varies considerably based on
NUMBER OF RECORDS
other factors such as sample rate and the number of operational modules. There is a fixed amount of data storage for oscil-
lography; the more data captured, the less the number of cycles captured per record. See the

ple configurations with corresponding cycles/record. The minimum number of oscillographic records is three.

rate of the relay which is always 64 samples per cycle; that is, it has no effect on the fundamental calculations of the device.
When changes are made to the oscillography settings, all existing oscillography records will be CLEARED.
