However, due to the latency of approximately 15 ms, the total time taken for the 
measurement to complete and return the value would be approximately 5.115 s. 
Hence, it is recommended that the time-out settings for communicating with the 
U2722A/U2723A is set to more than 5.115 s, else time-out error would likely 
occur.
Controlling measurement samples
You can vary the number of data points in a measurement sample and the time 
between samples. Refer to Figure 2-12.
Figure 2-12 Commands that control measurement time
When the instrument is turned on and at *RST, the output voltage or current 
sampling period is calculated using the SENSe:SWEep:TINTerval <integer>, 
(@1|2|3) command and the measurement buffer size is set to a value ranging 
from 1 up to 4096 data points. Thus, the expected time taken to fill up the data 
points set in the data buffer is governed by the following formula,
Expected time, t = points 
×  
time interval
You can vary the data sampling rate with these commands.
