Continuous
Continuous totalizing measurements count events (edges) that occur on the input
channel.
Similar to gated (timed) totalizing measurements, continuous measurements
begin when the measurement gate is opened (Figure 3-12). Rather than totalizing
for a specified gate time, continuous totalizing continues indefinitely until the
measurement is aborted, or cleared and restarted from the front panel.
The command used to make continuous totalizing measurements is:
CONFigure:TOTalize:CONTinuous [<channel>]
– channel is counter channel 1 or 2, specified as (@1) or (@2). (There is no
equivalent MEASure? command for continuous totalizing measurements.)
The command:
[SENSe:]TOTalize:DATA?
can be used during continuous totalizing or with long gate times to read the
current count.
Sending the command:
ABORt
aborts the measurement.
