AUTOMATIC MEASUREMENTS

– STATISTICAL MODE (Opt 10 only)

In the Statistical mode automatic measurements are made only in the ―Run‖ mode. When the Top Level > Measurement >
Stop selection is made, the latest value is displayed. Press the Top Level > Display > CLEAR menu key to clear previous
results. Press the Top Level > Measurement > Stop menu key to select ―Run‖. The measurement will begin and continue
until a terminate condition is met. The automatic measurements will continuously update with the results of the accumulating
data. The peak-to-average reading is not measured on External Trigger channels. The peak-to-average and dynamic range
results are always displayed in dB units. The average, peak and minimum results will have the same units as the associated
channel.
