When in stand-alone mode and using Remote
Storage (Start/Stop), recording begins immediately at the point the Remote
Storage state is true (i.e., if the default is used (Low True), when D0
is at 0V you will begin acquiring data samples). Remote Start will always
record at least 4 samples per channel before you can use Remote Stop.
D0 (Remote Start/Stop) will be sampled after the 4 scans are completed.
If D0 at that time is in a state that allows recording, storage will continue
without generating another Start. Otherwise the next scan will not be
stored, and storage will only resume when the Remote Storage state is
true again.
You can stop recording at any point in the
data file by using the push button or the Stop Recording to SD Memory
command without the 4 scan requirement.
Assuming the Default configuration of the Remote
Storage digital bit (Low True), use the following diagram to examine how
data samples are taken when recording at a low sample rate and using the
Remote Storage option.

for more information about recording at low sample rates.
