Press the
Window Center softkey and use the knob or arrow keys to shift the position of the window along
the screen. The reading at the center of the window is indicated by the pointers at the top and bottom of the

Press the
Find Trigger softkey and the instrument will locate the trigger points and position the window
center on the point where the trigger occurs.
Press the
Record softkey and use the knob or arrow keys to scroll through the list of Arm events to view the
set of data samples acquired from each respective Arm event number.
Important: If a certain Record's data is incomplete, the data of the Record will not be retrievable.
– Example #1: The digitizer channel is configured as such - Arm Count = 1, Sample Count = 1,000,000
and the digitizing operation is initiated. If you abort the operation before 1,000,000 samples have been
acquired, all acquired data in the 1
– Example #2: The digitizer channel is configured as such - Arm Count = 3, Sample Count = 1,000,000
and the digitizing operation is initiated. If you abort the operation during the 3

original value.
The decimation feature is useful in improving the speed of data throughput. You may digitize a large amount
of data per record at a high sampling rate to ensure thorough data capture, but do not need to return all the
stored values. Therefore by applying decimation, the instrument returns only the minimum and maximum of
actual digitized samples from each group of samples.
