3.8 Totalize Measurements

Totalize measurement counts and displays the number of events
triggered from the input signal. Only channel 1 is available for this
measurement. Auto-triggering is automatically turned off on channel 1
as the signal may not be suitable at the beginning of the measurement.
If GATE:AUTO is selected (refer to Ch.4.3), the Counter will continuously
display the count of events. Otherwise, the counting stops at the time
constrained by the Gating&Arming settings. Counting is reset to zero
when totalize function is first invoked, when the RUN button is pressed,
or when STOP/SINGLE button is pressed.

※ Note: The totalize measurement function can’t be used under

Scale & Offset, Limit Modes and Stats.
