Record length sets the memory depth for the waveform record. The choices
for record length are automatic or manual.

Record length...
Automatic lets the instrument select the record length for you. The
instrument picks a record length that optimizes the amount of data acquired
and
the
display
update
rate
.
When
the
instrument
is
in
the
color
graded
display
,
waveform
histogram,
or
mask
testing
modes
,
an
optimum
number
of
points
for
the
database
is
selected.
It
is
recommended
that
the
auto
record
length
be
used
for
the
above
three
modes
.
The
number
of
points
in a
complete
record
length
is
displayed
with
the
Record
Length
key
.

A
utomatic
Manual
lets
you
pick
a
record
length
from
16
to
4096
points
.
Use
the
knob
,
arrow
keys
,
or
keypad
to
select
a
record
length.
Because more
data
points
need
to
be
acquired,
a
waveform
with
a
long
record
length
takes
longer
to
construct
than one
with a
short
record
length.
However
,
a
long
record
length
produces a
waveform with
higher
horizontal
resolution,
therefore
a
tradeo
exists between
throughput and
resolution.
The
automatic
setting
attempts
to maximize
both throughput
and resolution.
