Explanation
For details, see section 2.3.
Selecting a Crest Factor
The crest factor is the ratio of the amplitude to the rms value. You can set the crest factor
to CF3 or CF6.
Note
• When you select a crest factor, the voltage range and current range are set to the maximum
range on all elements.
• If the crest factor is set to 6, the measurement conditions of crest factor 5 and higher
required by IEC62018 are met.
• When measuring waveforms whose crest factor is less than or equal to 3, you can achieve
more accurate measurements by setting the crest factor to 3.
