Time stamp
The time stamp shows the time of the currently displayed history acquisition. Thus, the
time relation between acquisitions is always available.
The time stamp "Mode" can be absolute or relative:
●
In "Absolute" mode, the instrument shows the date and the daytime of the current
acquisition.
●
In "Relative" mode, the time difference to the newest acquisition (index = 0) is
shown.
The time stamp can be included in waveform data export, see"T
ime stamps"
on page 463.
During history replay, the time value is displayed and updated if the replay speed ("Dis-
play time") is slow enough, that is 40 ms or slower.
The quick-access history dialog box always shows the relative time. In the "History
Viewer" tab, you can select the time mode.
