Max/Min Acquisition Process
About the Max/Min Acquisition Process
The Max/Min Acquisition process records the maximum and minimum values of
selected signals during a test.
You can configure this process to monitor selected signals for their maximum
and minimum values. When the maximum and minimum values are detected,
they are compared to the maximum and minimum values currently stored for the
associated signals. If the new values exceed the stored values, they replace the
stored values.
You can also configure this process to monitor a master signal for maximum or
minimum values. When the maximum and minimum values are detected, the
process samples the values of the other selected signals. When data is written to
disk, the master signal values are absolute maximum and minimum values, while
the other selected signals reflect their values at the time the master signal’s
maximum and minimum values were detected.
Keep in mind that this process writes data to disk when:
• The procedure ends normally.
• The procedure is stopped.
• The process is interrupted.
