SENSe Subsystem

The commands in this subsystem relate to device-specific parameters, not signal-oriented parameters.

[:SENSe]:AVERage Subsystem

This subsystem contains commands related to the combination of the data from consecutive sweeps. Use commands in this subsystem to control sweep-to-sweep averaging and max hold functionality.

Number of Traces to Average

[:SENSe]:AVERage:COUNt <integer>

[:SENSe]:AVERage:COUNt?

Sets the number of traces to average.

Factory Preset / *RST:	10
Range:	2-65535
Front Panel Access:	Shift-5 (Trace), Trace A Operations, # of Averages

 

Trace Mode (Normal/Average/Max Hold/Min Hold)

[:SENSe]:AVERage:TYPE NONE|SCALar|MAXimum|MINimum

[:SENSe]:AVERage:TYPE?

Specifies how successive traces are combined to produce the resulting display value.

Setting the TYPE to NONE is the equivalent of setting the Trace Mode to “Norm” on the front panel. The displayed value for a point will be the current measured value for that point.

Setting the TYPE to SCALar is the equivalent of setting the Trace Mode to “Avg” on the front panel. The displayed value for a point will be the average of the last <integer> measured values where <integer> is set by [:SENSe]:AVERage:COUNt.

Setting the TYPE to MAXimum is the equivalent of setting the Trace Mode to “Max” on the front panel (Max Hold). The displayed value for a point will be the maximum measured value for that point over sweeps.

Setting the TYPE to MINimum is the equivalent of setting the Trace Mode to “Min” on the front panel (Min Hold). The displayed value for a point will be the minimum measured value for that point over sweeps.

Factory Preset / *RST:	NONE
Front Panel Access:	Shift-5 (Trace), Trace Mode
