Background

The acquisition mode determines how the samples
are used to reconstruct a waveform.

Sample

This is the default acquisition
mode. Every sample from each
acquisition is used.

Peak detect

Only the minimum and maximum
value pairs for each acquisition
interval (bucket) are used. This
mode is useful for catching
abnormal glitches in the signal.

Average

Multiple acquired data is
averaged. This mode is useful for
drawing a noise-free waveform.
To select the average number, use
the Variable knob.
Average number: 2, 4, 8, 16, 32, 64,
128, 256
