Chapter 9 Trigger Settings
Description About start and stop times
• Start and Stop times should be set as times elapsed since the START key was
pressed.
• When the trigger mode is [Single] and the timer trigger is [On], only one timer
trigger specified as the Start trigger is recognized. Interval and Stop time trig-
gers are ignored.
To record an interval with specified Start and Stop times
Set the trigger mode to [Repeat], and set all other trigger sources [Off].
However, triggering is disabled during processing (auto save, auto print, wave-
form display processing and calculation) from the end of recording to the next
Trigger Wait state, so depending on measurement settings, recording may not
occur within the specified interval.
About Stop Time and Recording Length
The stop time is function-dependent:
Memory function: Measurement data is acquired for the specified recording
length, then recording stops.
Recorder function: Measurement data continues to be acquired until the speci-
fied Stop time.
