VOLTage[:DC]:APERture

[SENSe:]VOLTage[:DC]:APERture <number> sets the integration time in seconds for dc voltage measurements. Values are rounded up to the nearest aperture time shown in the following table.

Comments MIN sets the aperture time to 0.333ms. MAX sets the aperture time to 1.66667 seconds (60Hz) or 2 seconds (50Hz).

Setting the aperture time also sets the integration time in power line cycles (PLCs) and the resolution. For example, an aperture time of 16.7ms (60Hz line frequency) sets an integration time of 1 PLC. The corresponding resolution depends on the function and range you select.

The VOLT:APER command overrides the results of previously executed VOLT:NPLC and VOLT:RES commands. The last command executed has priority.

The greater the aperture time, the greater the normal mode rejection (and the lower the reading rate).

Example Set an Aperture Time of 16.7ms

VOLT:APER 16.7E-03

Aperture time is 16.7ms.

VOLTage[:DC]:APERture?

[SENSe:]VOLTage[:DC]:APERture? [MINMAX] returns one of the following numbers to the output buffer.

The present aperture time in seconds if MIN or MAX is not specified.

The minimum aperture time available (.333ms) if MIN is specified.

The maximum aperture time available (1.67s @ 60Hz; 2 s @ 50Hz) if MAX is specified.

Example Query the Aperture Time
