Measuring Relative Frequency
You can measure the difference in frequency from one measurement to 
another (drift) using the Relative Frequency function. You do this by 
pressing the Shift and Rel Freq (Offset On/Off) keys as shown in the 
diagram below (this example assumes that a signal is currently applied 
to Channel 1).
The Counter stores the current frequency reading when you press the 
Rel Freq key. It then subtracts this value from all subsequent readings 
and displays the difference until you press the Rel Freq key again.
NOTE
If the input signal fluctuates, the value displayed varies as the Counter 
continues to take measurements. You can vary the speed at which 
measurements are taken by varying the settings for Rate and Resolution 
(see “Setting the Measurement Rate” and “Setting the Resolution” o
pages 1-32 and 1-34).
