The Xplorer uses four different algorithms to detect and record
transients, while Dranetz HDPQ Guide and Visa have three.
You have the option to check Enable Automatic Limit
Incrementing to set limit trigger channel settings to auto-
threshold mode.
Set Peak Transients – use to set peak or instantaneous trigger
magnitude. The crest factor or instantaneous peak is the
absolute peak sample value within one cycle. The instantaneous
peak triggers on the absolute peak value of the entire waveform.
Set Waveshape Transients – use to set waveshape threshold
duration (window) and magnitude (tolerance) cycle to cycle. A
trigger occurs when either waveshape or rms deviation go
outside the programmed thresholds. Waveshape trigger values
include the magnitude and duration of the difference between the
present and previous cycle.
