Data Run Lengths Histogram Application

The Data Run Lengths Histogram displays the distribution of different run-lengths analyzed in the incoming data stream.  You can specify to see the distribution for run lengths for Marks (1's) or Spaces (0's).  While running, the Data analysis features grab short groupings of consecutive bits at a time, and analyze them.  The intervening periods are discarded.  Algorithms are careful to only present statistical results for the portions of time that were properly analyzed.  As long as analyzed and measured situations are the same as what may be occurring during unanalyzed and unmeasured times, these short captures can represent what is happening in your system, even though only a small amount of actual data bits have been analyzed and measured.


Data Run Lengths Histogram Settings

The Data Run Length Histogram can be configured to display the distribution of run lengths of Marks (1's) or Spaces (0's).

Strip chart control settings provide configuration for how many measurements to provide and for what interval of time each represents.



Run Type


Mark or Space
