200 Agilent InfiniiVision 3000 X-Series Oscilloscopes User's Guide
12 Acquisition Control
The Analyze Segments softkey appears when the acquisition is stopped and
the segmented memory feature is on or when the serial Lister is enabled.
You can also turn on infinite persistence (in the Display Menu) and press
the Analyze Segments softkey to create an infinite persistence display.
Segmented Memory Re-Arm Time
After each segment fills, the oscilloscope re- arms and is ready to trigger
in about 1 µs.
Remember though, for example: if the horizontal time per division control
is set to 5 µs/div, and the Time Reference is set to Center, it will take at
least 50 µs to fill all ten divisions and re-arm. (That is 25 µs to capture
pre- trigger data and 25 µs to capture post- trigger data.)
Saving Data from Segmented Memory
You can save either the currently displayed segment (Save Segment -
Current), or all segments (Save Segment - All) in the following data formats:
CSV, ASCII XY, and BIN.
