Fluke PM6681R manual CONFigure Measuring Function, Configure the counter for a single measurement

:CONFigure :<Measuring Function>

[￿ <parameters>[,(<channels>)]]

Configure the counter for a single measurement

PM6680B/81/85

Use the configure command instead of the measure query when you want to change other settings, for instance, the input settings before making the measure- ment and fetching the result.

The :CONFigure command controls the settings of the Input, Sense and Trigger sub- systems in the counter in order to make the best possible measurement. It also switches off any calculations with :CALC:STATE ￿ OFF.

:READ? or :INITiate;:FETCh? will make the measurement and read the resulting measured value.

Since you may not know exactly what settings the counter has chosen to configure itself for the measurement, send an *RST before doing other manual set up mea- surements.

Parameters

<Measuring Function>, <Parameters> and <Channels> are defined on page 9-54.The optional parameter :SCALar means that one measurement is to be done.

Returned format: <String>￿

<String> contains the current measuring function and channel. The response is a <String data element> containing the same answer as for [:SENSe]:FUNC- tion?.

Example:

SEND￿ :CONF:FREQ:RAT￿(@3),(@1)

Configures the counter for freq. ratio C/A.
