command to set parameters before you start a logging function using the
:SENSe[n][:CHANnel[m]]:FUNCtion:STATe command.
:SENSe[n][:CHANnel[m]]:FUNCtion:PARameter:LOGGing
:SENSe[n][:CHANnel[m]]:FUNCtion:PARameter:LOGGing<wsp><data points>,
<averaging time>[NS|US|MS|S]
Sets the number of data points and the averaging time for the logging data acquisition
function.
Data Points:
Data Points is the number of samples that are recorded before the
logging mode is completed. Data Points is an integer value.
Averaging time:
Averaging time is a time value in seconds.
There is no time delay between averaging time periods. Use
":SENSe[n][:CHANnel[m]]:FUNCtion:PARameter:STABility?"
on page 76 if you want to use delayed measurement.

If you specify no units for the averaging time value in your command, seconds are used as
the default.
See ":SENSe[n][:CHANnel[m]]:FUNCtion:STATe" on page 77 for information on start-
ing/stopping a data acquisition function.
See ":SENSe[n][:CHANnel[m]]:FUNCtion:RESult?" on page 77 for information on ac-
cessing the results of a data acquisition function.
See "Triggering and Power Measurements" on page 108 for information on how trigger-
ing affects data acquisition functions.

sens1:func:par:logg 64,1ms
All power meters and return loss modules
Can only be sent to master channel, slave channel is also affected.
:SENSe[n][:CHANnel[m]]:FUNCtion:PARameter:LOGGing?
:SENSe[n][:CHANnel[m]]:FUNCtion:PARameter:LOGGing?
Returns the number of data points and the averaging time for the logging data acquisition
function.
none
Returns the number of data points as an integer value and the averaging time, t
float value in seconds.
sens1:func:par:logg?
All power meters and return loss modules
Can only be sent to master channel, slave channel parameters are identical.
NO TE
Setting parameters for the MinMax function sets some parameters, including
hidden parameters, for the stability and logging functions and vice versa. You
must use the :SENSe[n][:CHANnel[m]]:FUNCtion:PARameter:MINMax
