INTRVL (SEC)

INTRVL

(SEC)

specifies the interval in seconds between each

data sample that is collected. For example, if you want to
collect 99 samples and

INTRVL=1

, it takes 99 seconds to finish

data collection. Enter values using the number keys. See the
CBR or CBL 2/CBL guidebook for more information about
interval limits.

PLOT

You can specify whether you want the calculator to collect
realtime (

graphs data points immediately as they are being collected, or
you can wait and show the graph only after all data points
