34 Keysight 3458A Quick Reference Guide
value: An integer from 3 to 8 (there is an implied
1/2 digit: that is, when you specify NDIG 3. the
multimeter displays 3 1/2 digits.)
Power-on value = 7 (7 1/2 digits).
Default value = 7 (7 11/2 digits).
NPLC [power_line_cycles]
Number of Power Line Cycles. Specifies the A/D
converter’s integration time in terms of power line
cycles.
power_line_cycles: Any value >1 for the
power_line_cycles parameter provides at least 60
dB of NMR at the power line frequency. Any value
<1 provides no NMR: it only sets the integration
time for the A/D converter. The ranges and the
incremental step sizes for the power_line_cycles
parameter are:
0 - 1 PLC in .000006 PLC steps for 60Hz reference
frequency (LFREQ command)
or
0 - 1 PLC in .000005 PLC steps for 50Hz reference
frequency
1 - 10 PLC in 1 PLC steps
10 - 1000 PLC in 10 PLC steps.
Power-on power_line_cycles = 10.
Default power_line_cycles = 0 (selects minimum
integration time of 500ns)
