The MSO5000 and the DS7000 series come with a built in frequency counter and totalizer which can be used at any time.  The frequency counter and the totalizer are meant to be used only on the analog channels of the instrument.

With the instrument already triggering properly on the signal press “Measure” and then press “Counter” on the right hand side of the display.  This will bring you to the frequency counter and totalizer menu and will allow you to change the channel that the tool is monitoring and the measurement that you wish to use at that time.

In the image below, I set the digital voltmeter to monitor channel 1 of my square wave.
