Subject to change without notice
The trigger setup is handled by the Configuration function (see chapter 7.2.1). If the configured
trigger condition occurs a started acquisition is stopped. The acquisition buffer is handled so that
the record associated with the trigger is stored in the middle of the buffer. This way the logged
records are equally split into half before and after the trigger.
Data logging
The data logging is a process collecting specific formatted records into the acquisition buffer
(dimensioned to store up to 2048 records) on condition that:
The acquisition mode is selected
The acquisition process is activated (start button was pressed)
The trigger condition if configured has occurred
The data amount is available
The data logging can be differentiated by selecting the acquisition mode. It can be refined by
setting a proper configuration.
Events filtering
The so called
“events” (refer to the specific types specified above) are always logged in the
acquisition buffer regardless of the active acquisition mode.
Therefore it is recommended to set up specific event filtering through the watch filter setup (refer
to the Configuration function, chapter 7.2.1) to avoid that too many event records fill the
acquisition buffer.
