Setting the Counter to Flag and Stop Measuring On Out-of-Limit
Measurements
If you want the Counter to stop measuring when the signal exceeds the limits (102 to
100 Mega) that you entered in the previous procedure, perform the following steps to
select the STOP choice in the ON FAIL display. (Note that ON FAIL: GO ON is the
default state after power-up.)
The current modified measurement of the input signal applied to CHANNEL 1 is
displayed.
Since the Counter is now in the stop-on-fail mode, the Limit annunciator in the
display will light and the Counter will stop making measurements when a
measurement exceeds the limits you set. The measurement result that exceeded the
entered limits will be held on the display for observation.
