Figure 13 Setting Match Mode Scale Limits
Setting the Measurement Data Points
Select the number of data points to take during a measurement. There are three
data point options, 238 points, 475 points, and 949 points. Increasing the number
of data points increases the measurable distance in distance-to-fault measure-
ments and increases the detail in Measure Match mode measurements. When
saving a trace, the number of data points collected (238, 475, or 949) are saved.
The default number of data points is 238. Selecting 475 data points provides
twice as many measurement points as 238, but it takes approximately twice as
long for the trace to sweep and display. Selecting 949 data points provides four
times as many measurement points as 238, but it takes approximately four
times as long for the trace to sweep and display.
A progress bar, just below the x-axis, moves from left to right indicating the
progress of the sweep. When the progress bar reaches the right side of the
screen, the sweep is finished.
When the number of measurement data points are changed, the current trace
is erased and the Save softkey is disabled until the sweep finishes and the
screen displays the first new trace. If the Save softkey is pressed before the first
sweep has completed, the Save softkey icon (the red bar) will blink until the
sweep finishes and then the display will change to the Save and Recall screen (in
response to pressing the Save softkey).
