120 Keysight 53220A/53230A User’s Guide
Figure 3-12 Gated and continuous totalizing.
The commands used to make gated (timed) totalizing measurements are:
MEASure:TOTalize:TIMed? [{<gate_time>|MINimum|MAXimum| DEFault}]
[,<channel>]
CONFigure:TOTalize:TIMed [{<gate_time>|MINimum|MAXimum| DEFault}]
[,<channel>]
– gate_time specifies the time input events on the counter channel are
totalized. The range for gate_time is:
53220A: 100 μs to 1000s (10 μs resolution) or +9.9E+37 (INFinity)
53230A: 1μ to 1000s (1 μs resolution) or +9.9E+37 (INFinity)
The default gate_time for both instruments is 0.100s.
– channel is counter channel 1 or 2, specified as (@1) or (@2).
