:ACQuire:AVERage

averages them. When OFF, averaging is disabled. To set the number of
averages, use the :ACQuire:AVERage:COUNt command described next.
Averaging is not available in PDETect mode.
The :MTESt:AVERage command performs the same function as this
command.
Example This example turns averaging on.
myScope.WriteString ":ACQUIRE:AVERAGE ON"
Query
:ACQuire:AVERage?
The :ACQuire:AVERage? query returns the current setting for averaging.
Returned Format
[:ACQuire:AVERAGE] {1|0}<NL>
Example

variable, strSetting, then prints the contents of the variable to the
computer's screen.
Dim strSetting As String ' Dimension variable.
myScope.WriteString ":ACQUIRE:AVERAGE?"
strSetting = myScope.ReadString
