Measuring for a Preset Integration Time
The System 824 can perform an integrated measurement
over a preset time in either the LOG or SSA Mode by
making use of the Interval measurement feature. For a
detailed description of setting up for an interval
measurement, see the section ”LOG and SSA Interval
Settings” on page 7-36.
To measure a single interval, set Interval Autostop (Intv
Auto Stop) to On as described in the section ”Intv Auto Stop
- (LOG, SSA)” on page 7-38. To measure and store data over
a series of equal time intervals, set Interval Autostop (Intv
Auto Stop) to Off.
The interval time can be set from 00:00:01 hr:min:sec to
99:59:59 in steps of 1 second.
