Horizontal and acquisition setups Start and s top waveform acquisitions
NOTE. The options Capturing Details with higher sample rate and Capturing rare events with more
acquisitions are not available on MSO/DPO5000 Series instruments.
Behavior
Fast Acquisitions mode keeps the dead time (see page 187) between acquisitions very short. This improves
the chances o
f acquiring infrequent events. When Fast Acquisitions are turned on, the front-panel FastAcq
button is lighted.
If Fast Acqu
isitions mode is on and you attempt to activate a feature that conflicts with this mode, Fast
Acquisitions mode will be inhibited. When the conflicting feature is turned off, in most cases, Fast
Acquisitions will resume.

is long, the instrument can miss acquiring infrequent events.
