It is

No, it's not.
Here is video of the SDG1032X frequency counter mode in operation:
The input frequency is 10MHz and the Num readout is incrementing by one every 1.75 seconds. It certainly appears that this product does not have a totalize function, and the Num readout is the number of gate periods over which the Mean, Min, Max and Sdev have been averaged. Why are you claiming that the product you sell has capabilities it does not?

:-DD
Thanks for your endorsement of my work here.
Did I not say I had not used these features ?
Did I not say I would more deeply investigate any Totaliser function these have ?
Well now I have and spent some real time to arrive at a firm conclusion there is no Totaliser mode in these 1kX, 2kX or 6kX AWG's but there darn well should be IMHO.
Maybe the HW is not fast enough to support a Totaliser function however I will ask HQ about this.
Investigations reveal the Num shown in the counter display is best described in this manner as it is in the SDG7000A manual:
Count/Num = Number of statistics - Number of measurements obtained
OTOH the somewhat more expensive SDG7000A certainly does have a Totaliser function described in the User manual on P109.

Thanks for the Clarification about the counter mode.
I would love to see it added but I think at this time it we will end up with a TF930 as we need something soon for this project.
Or I need to get GPIB communication with the 5316A (with AR488)
Thanks everyone for the help.
tautech:
What DSO do you have simba and does it have an xN edge counter ?
Maybe you already have something that can provide an event counter ?
simba15:
DSO I have tons,
Hantek 2d15
tek tds 2024C and 1052B and 2074 (2 series)
keysight DSOX2014
not sure of any can do the counter thing.
For the end user of the device a dedicated counter is best as they are not elec ( chemical eng dept.)
Currently the HP5316A works great in total mode but getting GPIB communication is not so easy.
Thanks!
