Histogram
The histogram shows measurement data as a frequency distribution.
Selecting the Display
The Display softkey allows you to select a different display (below). The trend chart is available on the 34461A only:
Binning
The Binning softkey allows you to either let the instrument control how the histogram is binned (automatic binning),
or to manually specify the binning parameters with the Bin Settings softkey. Changing any binning parameter, or
switching between automatic and manual binning, will automatically start the histogram over with new data. On the
34461A, this also resets the trend chart.
The number of bins can be 10, 20, 40, 100, 200, or 400. You can specify the bin range as either Low and High values,
or as a Span around a Center value. For example, the histogram range shown above (from -5 to 4 V) could be
specified as a Low of -5 V and a High of 4 V, or a Center of -0.5 V and a Span of 9 V.
The Outer Bins softkey displays two additional bins, for readings above and below the bin range. For example, this
image shows the Outer Bins softkey set to Off.
