Conversely, Output Off maytake up to 75 milliseconds to complete its function.To mitigate these built-in delays, you can program the output to zerovolts rather than using the output on/off function.Making MeasurementsEach output channel has its own measurement capability. The outputvoltage and current are measured simultaneously by acquiring a numberof samples at the selected time interval, applying a window function tothe samples, and averaging the samples.The power-on and *RST time interval and number of samples settingsyield a measurement time of 1.7 milliseconds per reading (166 datapoints at 10.24 μs intervals). The output windowing function isRectangular. Use the following commands to make a measurement:Front Panel: SCPI Command:Select the Meter key. Measure the output voltage orcurrent:MEAS:VOLT?
