HP 54620A - To Start and Stop an Acquisition

To start and stop an acquisition
•
To begin an acquisition, press the
Run/Stop
key.
The analyzer begins acquiring data while searching for a trigger condition.
The RUN indicator is shown in the upper-right corner of the display. If a
trigger occurs, the acquired data is shown in the display.
•
To stop an acquisition in process, press the
Run/Stop
key.
The analyzer stops acquiring data, and the STOP indicator is shown in the
upper-right corner of the display. If the analyzer was triggered (even by auto
triggering) and the acquisition buffer is full, the results are displayed on the
screen. If the acquisition buffer is not full, the waveform display area will be
blank.
See “To define the trigger mode” in chapter 2 for information on how the
analyzer trigger mode affects the search for the trigger condition.
