Track and Trend are summarized in the following table:

Characteristic

Track

Trend

Representation

Parameter value vs.
time

Parameter value vs. event

Behavior

Non-cumulative
(resets after every
acquisition).
Unlimited number
of events

Cumulative over several
acquisitions up to 1 million
events

Time Correlation to
Other Data

Yes

No

Monitors an
Evolution in the
Frequency Domain

Yes

No. Trend points are not
evenly spaced in time and
therefore cannot be used for
an FFT.

Monitors the
Evolution of a
Measurement
Parameter over
Several Acquisitions

No. Track resets
after every
acquisition.

Yes

Ensures No Lost
Measurement Data

Yes. Maximum time
period that can be
captured is limited
by acquisition
memory and
sampling rate.

No. Since data can be
accumulated over many
acquisitions, and since the
oscilloscope takes time to
calculate measurement values
and to display data before the
trigger is re-armed, data can be
missed.
