[SENSe[1]]|SENSe2:AVERage:COUNt <numeric_value>
This command is used to enter a value for the filter length. If
[SENSe[1]]|SENSe2:AVERage:COUNt:AUTO is set to ON then entering a value for
the filter length automatically sets it to OFF. Increasing the value of filter length
increases measurement accuracy but also increases the time taken to make a
power measurement.
Entering a value using this command automatically turns the
[SENSe[1]]|SENSe2:AVERage:STATe command to ON.
For most applications, automatic filter length selection
([SENSe[1]]|SENSe2:AVERage:COUNt:AUTO ON) is the best mode of operation.
However, manual filter length selection ([SENSe[1]]|SENSe2:AVERage:COUNt
<numeric_value>) is useful in applications requiring either high resolution or fast
settling times, where signal variations rather than measurement noise need
filtering, or when approximate results are needed quickly.
