10.2.5 Starting recording
Go to the oscilloscope toolbar and click the button to activate recording. Recording starts
as a function of the settings for triggering the signal source.
To obtain a maximum sample rate when recording the signal source values, the data are first stored
in the measured value memory of the 8400 HighLine and then transferred to the Engineering PC.
The current recording status is displayed in the status bar.
10.2.6 Cyclic recording
How to record oscillogram cyclically:
1. Click the symbol in the oscilloscope toolbar to open the Oscilloscope settings dialog box.
2. In order that the recording process is restarted automatically after the upload of an
oscillogram, set the checkmark accordingly.
• Cyclic recording is only possible for time base values
≥ 500 ms.
For monitoring certain situations, this serves, for instance, to obtain the increased view of the
interesting part of a characteristic even after the cyclic update, as originally zoomed.
10.2.7 Adjusting the representation
After the variable values have been recorded and the oscillogram has been transferred to the PC, it
is visualised. If required, the representation can now be adjusted by using the zoom or the
automatic scaling function.
Zoom function
Go to the oscilloscope toolbar and click the icon to activate the zoom function.
Note!
Recording can only be started when an online connection has been established to the
8400 HighLine.
