Click or tap the input field of Resolution to set the resolution by using the pop-up
numeric keypad. You can also use the corresponding multipurpose knob to set the
value. The range of resolution is from 3 bits to 6 bits. By default, it is 4 bits.
The greater the resolution, the longer the gate time. In this way, the measurement
time will be longer.

In the Measure item, you can select the desired measurement item. Available options
include Frequency, Period, and Totalize. Wherein, Totalize indicates the count of edge
events on the signal.
