[SENSe:]STRain:APERture {<seconds> | MIN | MAX | DEF} [, (@<ch_list>)]
[SENSe:]STRain:APERture? [{(@<ch_list>) | MIN | MAX | DEF}]
Enables the aperture mode and sets the integration time in seconds for strain measurements.
Parameter Typical return
<seconds> = 200 μs to 1 s (2 μs resolution)
Default: 100 ms
+1.00000000E- 01
Enable aperture time mode, set the aperture time to 300 ms:
STR:APER:ENAB ON
STR:APER 300E-03
–
You can specify MIN (smallest value accepted) or MAX (largest value accepted) instead of <seconds>.
– Only the integral number of power line cycles (1, 2, 10, 20, 100, or 200 PLCs) provide normal mode (line fre-
quency noise) rejection.
– This parameter is set to its default value after a Factory Reset (*RST command).
[SENSe:]STRain:APERture:ENABle {OFF | ON} [, (@<ch_list>)]
[SENSe:]STRain:APERture:ENABle? [(@<ch_list>)]
Enables the setting of integration time in seconds (called aperture time) for strain measurements. If aperture time
mode is disabled (default), the integration time is set in PLC (power-line cycles).
Parameter Typical return
{OFF | ON}. Default: OFF 0 (OFF) or 1 (ON)
Enable aperture time mode, set the aperture time to 300 ms:
STR:APER:ENAB ON
STR:APER 300E-03
– The CONFigure, MEASure?, [SENSe:]STRain:NPLCycles commands automatically disable the aperture mode, and
select an integration time in number of power line cycles.
– This parameter is set to its default value after a Factory Reset (*RST command).
