[SENSe:]PERiod:APERture
[SENSe:]PERiod:APERture <aperture>,<ch_list> sets the time allowed to determine signal period and return a reading to the algorithm. When APERture is large enough to contain more than one signal period, the SCP measures and averages the number of signal periods that will fit within this APERture time. If the specified APERture is less than the input signal period, the SCP stretches the aperture in order to measure at least one signal period. This is known a Adaptive Aperture.

Comments • The range for <aperture> is dependent on SENS:PER:RANGE:
--When SENS:PER:RANGE is 1, <aperture> can range from .001 to
1second.
--When SENS:PER:RANGE is 4, <aperture> can range froom .004 to
4seconds.
•For APERture to effect the measurement, SENS:PER:MODE must be set to APERture.
•If the channels specified are on an SCP that doesn’t support this function, an error will be generated. See your SCP’s User’s Manual for its capabilities.
