Waveform database mode
An acquisition mode that processes and displays a larger sample of data. The
waveform database is a three-dimensional accumulation of source waveform
data over several acquisitions. In addition to amplitude and timing informa-
tion, the database includes a count of the number of times a specific
waveform point has been acquired.
Waveform interval
The time interval between record points as displayed.
XY format
A display format that compares the voltage level of two waveform records
point by point. It is useful for studying phase relationships between
two waveforms.
XYZ format
A display format that compares the voltage level of two waveform records
point by point as in XY format. The displayed waveform intensity is
modulated by the CH 3 (Z) waveform record.
YT format
The conventional instrument display format. It shows the voltage of a
waveform record (on the vertical axis) as it varies over time (on the
horizontal axis).
