2.4 Acquisition Control
Acquisition settings define the processing of the captured samples in the instrument.
► To adjust the acquisition settings, press the ACQUIRE key, or select "Acquire" in
the main menu.
► To start or stop acquisition, press the RUN STOP key.
The R&S RTH captures the continuous signal and converts it to digital samples. The
digital samples are processed according to the acquisition settings. The result is a
waveform record that is displayed on the screen and stored in memory.
Description of settings
Acquisition Mode
Defines how the waveform is built from the captured samples.
"Sample"
One of n samples in a sample interval is recorded as waveform point,
the other samples are discarded. Usually, most signals are displayed
optimally with this acquisition mode but very short glitches might
remain undiscovered by this method.
