trigger if the current trigger condition hasn’t been met within a
specified period of time.

The Run Mode section of the dashboard also contains two green indicators
for Ready and Triggered. These indicators reflect the state of the digital
device at any point in time.

Persistence

Directly above the run mode buttons on the dashboard are the Persistence
controls. Click the Persist button to toggle the function on/off. When

display and restart your acquisitions.
