4.4 Stabilizing Measured Values (Averaging Function)
73
4
The averaging function averages multiple measured values and displays the results. It can
be used to reduce variation in measured values.
For internal trigger measurement (Free-Run), a moving average is calculated.
For external trigger measurement (and :READ? command operation) (Non-Free-Run), a
mean average is used.
For more information about communications commands, see the included application disc.
Average (of measurements D1 to D6) with Averaging Samples set to 2.
When using the SLOW2 measurement speed with low-power resistance measurement on,
the instrument will performing averaging with two iterations internally even if the averaging
function is set to off. If the averaging function is on, the instrument will perform averaging
using the set number of iterations.
