MEASure
. :MODE CONTinuous|PERiodic
Setting of continuous or periodic measuring mode
In the PERiodic measurement mode all detectors are discharged after the measuring time has elapsed,
and the next measurement is started. Only the individual measured values per measuring period are
displayed.
If the path to the result buffer MTRACE is enabled by command TRACE:FEED:CONTrol MTRACE,
ALWays, a measured value is stored in MTRACE each time the measuring time has elapsed.
In the CONTinuous measuring mode the measuring detector is read out every 200 msec, irrespective
of the measuring time. These current measured values are displayed.
The measuring time has an effect on the level detectors. With AVG the measuring time determines the
averaging time. With PEAK the measuring time determines the fall time. With FAST the measuring time
does not have any impact since it is only the current value which is measured.
If the path to the result buffer MTRACE is enabled by command TRACE:FEED:CONTrol MTRACE,
ALWays, a current measured value can be stored in MTRACE.
