To have a time stamp appear with the data,
touch the associated check box.

Selecting the check box writes a time stamp with
each data point. This is a relative time stamp that
always begins with zero.

Note that, with the time stamp, the maximum
sampling rate without missing points is 1.3 kHz
instead of 2 kHz without time stamp.

No

To start the acquisition you must return to the display window in dual or single mode. Touch the DATA
ACQUISITION
button on the Display Parameters menu bar and then touch Start (refer to section
2.4.3.1). The MAESTRO begins storing data according to your Data Sampling settings. The Stop
command stops the data recording before the end of the acquisition total duration. Even if the acquisition
is stopped, the MAESTRO will continue to provide measurements to the display. If you want to be able to
open the file in Excel use .csv in your file name extension.
