– You can specify a sweep count in conjunction with a trigger count and a
sample count. The three parameters operate independent of one another, and
the total number of readings returned will be the product of the three
parameters.
– You can store at least 500,000 readings in memory and all readings are
automatically time stamped. If memory overflows, the new readings will
overwrite the first (oldest) readings stored; the most recent readings are
always preserved.
– The
CONFigure
and
MEASure?
commands automatically set the sweep count
to 1 sweep.
– The instrument sets the sweep count to 1 after a Factory Reset (
*RST
command). An Instrument Preset (
SYSTem:PRESet
command) or Card Reset
(
SYSTem:CPON
command) does
not
change the setting.

Sample Count
The sample count sets the number of auto-triggered samples the internal DMM
will take per channel per trigger. The sample count applies to both scanning and
stand-alone DMM measurements (with no scan list). The front-panel sample
annunciator (“ * ”) turns on during each measurement.
