Command Reference
WAT
This command sets the source wait time and the measurement wait time as shown in
Figure 4-4. The wait time is given by the following formula:
wait time = N × initial wait time + offset
where initial wait time is the time the Keysight E5260/E5270 initially sets and you
cannot change. The initial source wait time is not same as the initial measurement
wait time. The wait time settings are effective for all modules.
Syntax WAT type,N[,offset]
Parameters type Type of the wait time. Integer expression. 1 or 2.
1: Source wait time (before changing the output value).
2: Measurement wait time (before starting the measurement).
N Coefficient for initial wait time. Numeric expression.
0 to 10, resolution 0.1. Initial value is 1.
offset Offset for the wait time. Numeric expression.
0 to 1 sec, resolution 0.0001. Default value is 0.
