7 Press Run key.
Immediately after the Run key is pressed, the Counter momentarily displays DOING
STATS. When the Counter has made 20 valid measurements, it then displays the mean
frequency value of the input signal.
NOTE The Counter will display updated statistics results every 20 measurements.
8 Press Stop/Single key after you have a mean value displayed.
9 To display the minimum frequency value, perform the following:
a. Press Stats key.
b. Press any one of the arrow keys until SHOW: MIN is displayed.
c. Press Freq Ch 1 key.
CAUTION Pressing the Run key now would clear the present statistics results and calculate a
new set of results after “N” measurements.
Example Procedure for Easy Viewing of Stats
The d and f arrow keys provide a short cut to viewing each of the stats (that is, standard
deviation, mean, maximum, and minimum) when the Counter is already displaying a
statistic measurement. These keys allow you to cycle through the different Stats results
and automatically view them.
While the Counter is displaying a statistics measurement, press either the d or f
arrow key to cycle through and display each of the four computed statistics, and
the current measurement.
NOTE The Display Digits keys (that is, More Digits and Fewer Digits) do NOT affect
standard deviation display results.
