// seconds
*RST // reset the counter to start from a known state
CONF:TOT:CONT (@1)
INP1:LEV 1.0 // set level threshold to 1V
INP1:SLOP NEG // totalize negative edges
INIT // start the measurement
(wait 10 seconds)
SENS:TOT:DATA? // query count after 10 seconds
(wait 10 seconds)
SENS:TOT:DATA? // query count after 20 seconds
ABOR // stop measurement

Notes
1 Pressing Clear Count on the front panel will not clear or abort continuous
measurements started from the LAN, USB, or GPIB interface. Pressing the
Back/Local key, however, will clear the count when the instrument transfers
from remote to local mode.
2 Continuous totalizing must be aborted (stopped) before the count can be
retrieved from the output buffer using the FETCh?, DATA:LAST?,
DATA:REMove?, or R? command (Chapter 7).
3 The ABORt command sent from the remote interface or changing the counter
function from the front panel stops continuous totalizing.
