– You can read the time at any time, even during a scan.
– This command is not affected by the FORMat:READing:TIME:TYPE command, which selects the time format for
storing scanned data in reading memory (absolute time versus relative time).
– This command is not affected by the CALCulate:AVERage:CLEar command, which clears all values from the stat-
istics registers.
– The instrument clears all stored data on all channels when a new scan is started, after a Factory Reset (*RST com-
mand), or after an Instrument Preset (SYSTem:PRESet command).
