Greetings-
I am trying to find out what the meaning of the measurement statistics is for "RMS" (entire waveform) in the display panel. My understanding is that RMS (the root of the mean of the squares) is a number calculated from the entire waveform. How can you have a mean, min, max, and Std deviation of a single number? Wouldn't all those (except Std Dev) be the same since the result of RMS is a single number? See attached image.
I have seen others ask this question and some speculation on what they are:

But it would be nice to see some documentation on what the firmware is really doing and what meaning those numbers have.
Thank you,
Dave
