Average/Hold Number

Sets the terminal count number N for Average, Max Hold and Min Hold trace types. This number is an
integral part of how the average trace is calculated. Basically, increasing N results in a smoother
average trace.

Notes

In the past, when changing the Average Count (now Average/Hold Number), you had to re-
start the trace at the beginning of a sweep to ensure valid average data. Now, the system will
ensure valid results when changing the count limit.
