DataSet

The data set to be searched.

Permitted data structures are data series und signal. All numeric data types are permitted.

For complex data types the absolute value is formed.

If the argument is a list, then the function is executed for each element of the list and the result is also a list.

Position

If you are searching in a signal, this is the X value where the search is to start. If you are searching a data series, this is the index of the value where the search is to start. Here, a negative index determines a position relative to the end of the data set. If you omit the argument or pass the value Empty, the search starts at the beginning or end of the data set, depending on the direction of the search. The first or last value of the data set is only taken into account if you omit the argument or pass the Empty value.

Permitted data structures are scalar value. All numeric data types are permitted. The unit has to be compatible with that of parameter DataSet.

For complex data types the absolute value is formed.

If the argument is a list, then the function is executed for each element of the list and the result is also a list.

Threshold

Specifies the threshold value for the burst search. Those values are assigned to a burst, for which at least one of the neighboring values in the interval [-DeltaX, DeltaX] to the left or right lies above the threshold value.

DeltaX

Determines the interval [-DeltaX, DeltaX], within which at least one value has to lie above the threshold value in order to assign the value to be examined to the burst.

Orientation

Specifies whether burst beginnings, ends or both are to be searched for.

The argument Orientation can have the following values:

If the argument is a list, then the first element in the list is taken. If this is also a list, then the process is repeated.

If this argument is omitted, it will be set to the default value EVENT_BOTH.

Direction

Specifies the direction of the search in the function.

The argument Direction can have the following values:

If the argument is a list, then the first element in the list is taken. If this is also a list, then the process is repeated.

If this argument is omitted, it will be set to the default value EVENT_RIGHT.
