scan for a particular event in many acquisitions over a long period of time. Each

to find a different type of event. The results are time stamped, tabulated, and can be selected for
individual viewing.
There are two principal approaches to using WaveScan.
Capture & Search -- Make a single acquisition, then use Measurement Mode to search for parameter
measurements that fit your filter criteria.
Scan -- Set up the scan mode, then scan for matching events across multiple acquisitions.
Customize the presentation by choosing different WaveScan display features, or

set Actions to occur automatically when unusual events are found, such as stopping the acquisition or
sounding an alarm.
