Running Max/Min Data Acquisition
When Running Max/Min data acquisition is active, Basic TestWare monitors the selected signals for maximum
and minimum values achieved. When Basic TestWare is stopped, it writes these maximum/minimum values
to the data file.

Running Max/Min Type
The Signals Available list displays the names of signals that are accessed using
the current station. Highlight each signal in the list that you want to acquire data
from. Click the > button to move the signal to the Signals Included list. Signals Available/Signals
Included
To remove signal names from the Signals Included list, highlight the name of
each signal that you want to remove, and then click the < button.
Note:
The order of the signal names in the Signals Included list determines the
order in which the signals are recorded in the data file.
Level Crossing Data Acquisition
Level Crossing data acquisition records the selected signal values when the master signal changes by the
level increment you specify.
For example, suppose you want to acquire data every time the displacement signal moves 2 millimeters:
1. First, you would make the desired displacement feedback signal the Master Signal.
2. Then you would set the Level Increment to two millimeters.
3. Select signals to be stored in the data file. The Master Signal need not be one of them.
Now, when the master signal reaches signals at two millimeter intervals (for example, 2mm, 4mm, 6mm),
signal values will be recorded for all of the selected signals.
Note:
Do not set the level increment below the level of any signal noise.
