Field or control Description
Save Screen Capture Saves the screen image at the time of the event, to the format designated in the Save Configuration
panel.
Save Waveform Saves the waveform data at the time of the event, to the format designated in the Save Configuration
panel.
Stop Acquisitions Stops the instrument from acquiring any more data.
SRQ This is a signal sent via the VISA connection to alert listeners that an event has occurred. Enabling
this will send such an event when the action has occurred and if the status registers are configured
correctly
.
Number of Saves Allows you to toggle between Unlimited or Specify a Maximum for number of saves. Default option

Maximum Enter the maximum number of saves in the text field. This is enabled when Number of Saves is set to

Actions guidelines
•
All actions are taken on a per acquisition basis. This means that if Save Screen Capture is checked in multiple columns and during a
single acquisition the criteria is met in multiple columns, only a single screen capture is saved.
• For a timer event if there is no change in waveform dataset, the active measurement does not compute and log, instead shows an *
symbol next to the measurement in the selected log file.
• The waveform save and screen capture save happens even if the waveform data is same for the two timer events.
• If there is no change in the waveform dataset and if any measurement configuration changed in between two timer events then the
measurements are computed and the measurement result statistics are added in the log file (without * symbol).
Add Measurements configuration menu overview
Use this configuration menu to select measurements you want to take on waveforms and add the measurements to the Results bar.
To open the Add Measurements configuration menu, tap the Measure button in the Analysis controls area.
The Add Measurements configuration menu always opens on the measurement tab.
To add a measurement, select the measurement type tab, select the input source or sources, select the measurement, and either tap the
Add button or double-tap the measurement. The measurement is added to the Results bar.
To change individual measurement settings, double-tap the Measurement badge to open a configuration menu for that measurement. See
Measurement configuration menu overview on page 114.
