Typically you would use FreqMaskTrigger with Segment Count, but it can also
be used with Record Time and Record Interval.
When used with Segment Count:
— When a mask limit is exceeded, subsequent traces are recorded until the
— To record only those traces that exceed the limit, set Segment Count to 1
— To record ALL traces after a limit is exceeded, set Segment Count OFF.
When used with Record Time, the timer counts down even when traces are not
being recorded (limits are not being exceeded). Recording starts when a limit is
exceeded and stops when the timer reaches 0.
When used with Record Interval, a trace is recorded when a limit is exceeded,
then no recordings during the specified 'wait' interval, then the next trace is
recorded, followed by another time delay, and so forth. This pattern repeats
indefinitely if Segment Count is OFF, or (if ON) until Segment Count is reached.

A mask that is in use during a recording is NOT saved with the recording and
does NOT automatically appear during playback. Like Limits Lines, it is saved
and recalled with a state file.
Although they are created in the same manner, Limit Line files and FreqMask
files can NOT be used interchangeably.
