Under Advanced Settings, select one of the three Measurement Cycle options, which are
Finite, the acquisition will execute a number of cycles specified in # Cycles. The maximum
number of cycles is 9999,
Time Limit, the acquisition will stop at a time and date set with the Acquisition End
timestamp control
Ad Infinitum, the acquisition will continue forever. Use the STOP button on the main user
interface to terminate the Lifetime experiment
Use the drop down menu of the Acquisition Rate ring control to set the rate of the measurement
cycle. The two available options are
1) Maximum SuperFACT will start a new acquisition as soon as the previous one is completed
2) User The User can force an idle time between two consecutive acquisitions. The interval is
set in Meas.Interval by entering it with the format hours:minutes:seconds
For lifetime run in conjunction with stress-biased experiments, the voltage bias to apply between
two consecutive acquisition cycles is set by selecting the Bias On option on the Bias drop down
menu, with the bias voltage specified in the Bias Voltage input field. Bias Voltage accepts voltage in
the range -10 to 10 Volts.
Note: make sure that Meas.Interval is different from zero to allow the stress bias to be applied
Important: If a total current measured during stress biased exceeds 10 mA, SuperFACT will return
error code 5600 and the acquisition will be terminated.
Tip: Introduce an idle time between two consecutive acquisition cycles to reduce the amount of data
produced during a lifetime experiment
