Application Notes 6-15
The following two global status values are displayed:

DEFINITION
Total Time: The total time in Hours:Minutes:Seconds that the data acquisition has been running.
Points:
The total number of data samples in MSa that has been acquired for each channel in the current run.
Note The total number of data samples is affected by the terminal settings. If Terminal Action
is set to decimate, then the sample count will be halved each time the Terminal Count or
Time is reached. This should have very little visible effect on the CCDF values, since the
entire population is decimated uniformly. If Terminal Action is set to restart, then the
sample count will be cleared to zero each time the Terminal Count or Time is reached.
