Setting the Measurement Frequency
The setting range for Measurement Frequency is between 42.0Hz~5.00MHz.
Unit: Hz
Significant Digits: 3 digits.
e.g.) "FRE42.0E0" ~ “FRE99.9E0" 42.0Hz ~ 99.9Hz
"FRE100E0" ~ "FRE999E0" 100Hz ~ 999Hz
"FRE1.00E3" ~ "FRE9.99E3" 1.00kHz ~ 9.99kHz
"FRE10.0E3" ~ "FRE99.9E3" 10.0kHz ~ 99.9kHz
"FRE100E3" ~ "FRE999E3" 100kHz ~ 999kHz
"FRE1.00E6" ~ "FRE5.00E6" 1.00MHz ~ 5.00MHz
Because the 3550 uses exponential number formatting for the test frequency, variations of
the above format may be used. To set 100kHz, the following methods are also valid:
e.g.) "FRE1.00E5" –OR- "FRE10.0E4"
(Set the test frequency to 100kHz)
Setting the Number of Averages per Reading
To change the number of measurements to be averaged use the "V*" command.
* can be replaced by values between 1~100
e.g.) "V55" (Set the number of averages to 55 samples)
Errors in defining the number of samples to be averaged for a reading are addressed as
follows:
Settings outside the range of 1~100, are considered program errors.
e.g.) The values 0 or 101 would be considered invalid values for the average parameter.
