Statistical Measurement Results
Statistical Measurement Results
Description
Most measurements have a setup window that provides for the entry of a multi-measurement count value.
This specifies how many measurements the test set will perform to obtain a set of values from which to
calculate the following statistical measurement results:
• Average (arithmetic mean) of measurement set
• Minimum value from measurement set
• Maximum value from measurement set
• Standard Deviation of measurement set
Operating Considerations
The advantages of using the multi-measurement feature to obtain statistical measurement data include:
reduced time associated with GPIB bus traffic, and reduced time configuring hardware. This is because the
number of measurements specified in the multi-measurement count value are performed during one
measurement cycle.
Programming Example
OUTPUT 714;”SETUP:DAPOWER:COUNt 10” !Enters a Digital Average Power count
!of 10, and turns the Digital Average Power
!multi-measurement state on.
