NOTE
Setting Procedure
1. Press the
DISPLAY
key and use the right
and left
CURSOR
keys to select the
"
Trigger
"tag.
2. Select "
Timer
", then press the
ENTER
key.
ON : Use the timer trigger.
OFF : Does not use the timer trigger.
3. Set the start time (month, date, hour,
minute) under "
Start
".
Press the
CURSOR SCROLL
key to enter
the current time.
4. Set the stop time (month, date, hour,
minute) under "
Stop
".
5. Set the interval (date, hour, minute,
second) under "
Interval
".
The start time and stop time must be set to come after the time START key is pressed.
When the trigger mode is set to "
Single
", a trigger is activated only once at the start time. The
interval or stop time settings are ineffective (when only the timer trigger is ON).
When trigger sources have been linked with "
OR
", all trigger sources are valid. Therefore
triggering may occur even before the start time, and trigger standby and measurement may
continue even after the stop time.
When the AND/OR setting is set to "
AND
", the trigger enters the standby state at the start time
and set intervals. Moreover, a trigger will be activated if a trigger other than timer trigger occurs
at the same time.
For recording at regular intervals between the start time and stop time, set as follows:
Trigger mode: Repeat
Trigger source AND/OR: AND or OR
Other trigger sources: OFF
Between end of recording and standby, triggers are invalid while processing is taking place (auto
save, waveform display, calculation, evaluation, etc.) and therefore data may not be recorded at
regular intervals with some measurement setting.
