Functions

Time Interval: The X and 0 markers measure the time interval between one point on a timing waveform and trigger, two points on the same timing waveform, two points on different waveforms, or two states (time tagging on).

Delta States: (State Analyzer Only) The X and 0 markers measure the number of tagged states between one state and trigger, or between two states.

Patterns: The X and 0 markers can be used to locate the nth occurrence of a specified pattern before or after trigger, or after the beginning of data. The 0 marker can also find the nth occurrence of a pattern before or after the X marker.

Statistics: X to 0 marker statistics are calculated for repetitive acquisitions. Patterns must be specified for both markers and statistics are kept only when both patterns can be found in an acquisition. Statistics are minimum X to 0 time, maximum X to 0 time, average X to 0 time, and ratio of valid runs to total runs.

Run: Starts acquisition of data in specified trace mode.

Stop: In single trace mode or the first run of a repetitive acquisition, STOP halts acquisition and displays the current acquisition data. For subsequent runs in repetitive mode, STOP halts acquisition of data and does not change current display.

Data Display/Entry Display Modes: State listing; timing waveforms; interleaved, time-correlated listing of two state analyzers (time tagging on); time-correlated state listing and timing waveform display (state listing in upper half, timing waveform in lower half, and time tagging on).

Timing Waveform: Pattern readout of timing waveforms at X or 0 marker.

Bases: Binary, Octal, Decimal, Hexadecimal, ASCII (display only), and

User-defined symbols.
