So, are you proposing that we carry a continuous sum^2 and count to compute RMS or would this be over a certain period? It appears that it could be implemented much like the meter peak line (just draw it last and reset with a right click like we do with the peak line). -- Jan 'Evil Twin' Depner The Fuzzy Dice http://myweb.cableone.net/eviltwin69/fuzzy.html "As we enjoy great advantages from the invention of others, we should be glad of an opportunity to serve others by any invention of ours, and this we should do freely and generously."
