Mask Testing 16

How is mask testing done?
InfiniiVision oscilloscopes start mask testing by creating a database that is 200 x
640 for the waveform viewing area. Each location in the array is designated as
either a violation or a pass area. Each time a data point from a waveform occurs in
a violation area a failure is logged. If Test All was selected, every active analog
channel is tested against the mask database for each acquisition. Over 2 billion
failures can be logged per-channel. The number of acquisitions tested is also
logged and displayed as "# of Tests".
The mask file allows greater resolution than the 200 X 640 database. Some
quantization of data occurs to reduce the mask file data for display on-screen.
Although a mask can have up to 8 regions, in any given vertical column, it is only possible to
define 4 regions. When there are 4 regions in a vertical column, one region must be tied to the
top (using the MAX y value) and one must be tied to the bottom (using the MIN y value).
