With a similar software application as that of the 841-P-USB, the user can take full control of the meter within minutes. The impressive high data transfer rate allows downloading data at 10 kHz/channel. An external trigger is available for 2.4 V to 24 V trigger to synchronize the data acquisition to it.
The software features include a complete statistics package including Min, Max, average, standard deviation, root mean square, point-to-point stability, pulse count, and repetition rate, a line plot and a histogram, and options for saving data, saving statistics, or both.
