2 Command System
:ACQuire:AVERages
Syntax
:ACQuire:AVERages
:ACQuire:AVERages
Description
Set the number of averages and the value should be a power function of 2.
Query the current number of averages of the oscilloscope.
Parameter
Name Type Range Default
Integer 2 to 8192 2
Explanation
Use the :ACQuire:TYPE command to select the average acquisition mode. In this
mode, the oscilloscope averages the waveforms from multiple samples to reduce the
random noise of the input signal and improve the vertical resolution. The greater the
number of averages is, the lower the noise will be and the higher the vertical
resolution will be but the slower the response of the displayed waveform to the
waveform changes will be.
Return Format
The query returns an integer between 2 and 8192.
Example
:ACQuire:AVERages 128
The query returns 128.
