Figure 2-12 Commands That Control Measurement Time - Agilent Technologies U2722A User Manual

Operation and Features 2
However, due to the latency of approximately 15 ms, the total time taken
for the measurement to complete and return the value would be
approximately 5.115 s. Hence, it is recommended that the time- out settings
for communicating with the U2722A/U2723A is set to more than 5.115 s,
else time- out error would likely occur.
Controlling measurement samples
You can vary the number of data points in a measurement sample and the
time between samples. Refer to Figure 2- 12.
SENS:SWE:TINT <time>, (@1|2 |3)
SENS:SWE:POIN <# of points>, (@1|2 |3)

Figure 2-12 Commands that control measurement time

When the instrument is turned on and at *RST, the output voltage or
current sampling period is calculated using the SENSe:SWEep:TINTerval
<integer>, (@1|2|3) command and the measurement buffer size is set
to a value ranging from 1 up to 4096 data points. Thus, the expected time
taken to fill up the data points set in the data buffer is governed by the
following formula,
Expected time, t = points × time interval
You can vary the data sampling rate with these commands.
