Background 
The number of samples that can be stored is set by 
the record length. Record length is important in an 
oscilloscope as it allows longer waveforms to be 
recorded and/or allows higher sampling rates to 
be achieved when equivalent time sampling is 
used. 
There are two record length settings, Auto and 
Short. The Auto setting will set the record length to 
maximum record length available, dependent on 
the scope settings. The Short setting will set the 
record length to 1M. 
The maximum record length for the GDS-2000A 
depends on the number of active channels, which 
channels are active, and whether the normal or 
single shot triggering mode is used. The table 
below describes the record lengths that are 
available for each triggering mode.
