To Set Sampling Parameters
Measurement Setup
No of Samples:
Number of samples. Integer. 1 to the following value.
For linear: 100001 / (number of measurement channels)
For logarithmic: 1 + (number of data for 11 decades)
Total Sampling Time:
This field just displays the total sampling time that is the time from the measurement start time
for the first point to the end of sampling measurement. It does not include the hold time.
Total Sampling Time = Interval × No of Samples
Output Sequence:
Source output sequence. SIMULTANEOUS or SEQUENTIAL.
Hold Time:
Time since the Source value output until the first sampling point, in seconds. 0 to 655.35 s,
resolution 0.01 s.
The following values are also available for Interval < 0.002 s. |Hold Time| will be the time since
the sampling start until the Source value output.
-0.09 to -0.0001 s, resolution 0.0001 s.
Base Hold Time:
Hold time of the Base value output until the Source value output, in seconds. 0 to 655.35 s,
resolution 0.01 s.
