16802A Stop button sets a trigger condition

Hello,

On the 16802A Logic Analyzer, when a repetitive trigger is set, pressing the Stop button sets a trigger condition causing that the last data acquired gets lost.

Is there a way to stop this behaviour, causing that after pressing the Stop button, the last data acquired stays in the display??

Thanks in advance,

Ezequiel

Once an acquisition has started, the old data is discarded. This is because the analyzer immediately starts capturing data as soon as it goes to "Run" mode, even if the trigger is not found. This is to satisfy the possible need for pre-trigger data. When you are in repetitive mode, the analyzer goes from a 'completed' state to a 'run' state immediately. There is no way to keep this from happening. This is also true for oscilloscopes, and other triggered real-time capture tools.
