When a Scan Only scan is running, changing this parameter to single will finish the current scan and
stop. When the scan sequence = Scan Only, and no scan is running, changing this parameter will
start a scan.
When a scan sequence other than Scan Only is running, changing this parameter will have no impact
on the measurement. The scan will always be single in this case
For single scanning:
When the specified # of scans is complete, the scan will stop. Any parameter change before the
scans complete will restart the scans (Scan number recount from zero). Any parameter change after
the scans complete will NOT restart the scans. You need to manually start the scan.
For continues scanning:
When the specified # of scans completes, it continues to scan with exponential averaging/ holds. Any
parameter change after the scans complete will NOT restart the scans. You need to manually start
the scan.
