9-26 Command Reference
:CONFigure :<Measuring Function> PM6680B/81/85
[8 <parameters>[,(<channels>)]]
Configure the counter for a single measurement
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 8 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.

<String data element> containing the same answer as for [:SENSe]:FUNC-
tion?.
