Choose the desired Acquisition Method for the selected channel.

Filter

Default method. The DI-4108 and DI-4208 employ a low-pass filter per analog channel with automatic corner frequency selection. The filter is a CIC (cascaded integrator comb) type that uses as many as 512 samples per channel to calculate in real time as data is acquired. Filter response is optimized when sampling frequency is set to ten times the highest frequency of interest.

Last Point

This method reports the last input data point in the burst sample for storage and display. The rest of the data points in the burst sample are ignored.

Maximum

This method reports the highest value data point in the burst sample for storage and display. The rest of the data points in the burst sample are ignored.

Minimum

This method reports the lowest value data point in the burst sample for storage and display. The rest of the data points in the burst sample are ignored.

RMS and Frequency

RMS and Frequency are not supported acquisition methods in the DI-4108 and DI-4208.
