Quick Reference Guide 15
• The STD DEV value is the standard deviation of the buffered readings. The equation
used to calculate the standard deviation is:
where: X
i
is a stored reading.
n is the number of stored readings.
NOTE The Model 2182 uses IEEE-754 floating point format for math calculations.
Remote buffer programming
SCPI commands
SCPI commands to configure and control the buffer and buffer statistics are listed in Table 7.
