If some samples in the waveform are missing or offĆscale, the measurements
will linearly interpolate between known samples to make an appropriate"
guess as to the sample value. Missing samples at the ends of the measureĆ
ment record will be assumed to have the value of the nearest known samĆ
ple.
When samples are out of range, the measurement will give a warning to that
effect (for example, CLIPPING") if the measurement could change by
extending the measurement range slightly. The algorithms assume the
samples recover from an overdrive condition instantaneously.
