DESCRIPTION:
These commands configure the 2461 TYPE C to totalize
events occurring at channels 1 or 2. The counting interval
can be controlled by:
(1) Electrical start and stop signals applied to the channel 2
input (Totalize 1 by 2) or to the channel 1 input (Totalize 2 by
1).
(2) Successive operations (Manual Totalize). Refer to the
SENSe:TOTalize:MANual command for a description of the
Manual mode.
Note that the arming of the stop circuit can be delayed for a
time set by the operator. This prevents the measurement
interval being stopped prematurely by spurious pulses, such
as those caused by contact bounce. Refer to the
SENSe:TINTerval:DELAy:TIME and
SENSe:TINTerval:DELAy:STATe for a description.
The return of intermediate totalize results (reading on the fly)
can be enabled by using the SENSe:TOTalize:INTermediate
command (only for SCALar-type measurements).
The ARRay command programs the counter for multiple
totalize measurements as specified by the <array size>
parameter.
The optional <expected value> and <resolution> parameters
are accepted but ignored. The resolution is determined by
the input signal.
