Usage
count = dmm.measurecount
dmm.measurecount = count
The number of measurements to take when a DMM measure function is used
(maximum 450,000)
Details
This attribute controls the number of measurements taken any time a measurement is requested
(through dmm.measure, dmm.measurewithtime, or the front panel MEASURE menu option).
When using a reading buffer with a measure command, the count also controls the number of
readings to be stored.
It has no effect on the trigger model, and the trigger model does not affect this setting.
This setting is applied to all functions (the setting is not related to a specific function).
Example
DMMbuffer = dmm.makebuffer(500)
dmm.measure(bufferVar)
dmm.measurecount = 50
Create a reading buffer called DMMbuffer
that can store 500 readings.
Store 50 readings in DMMbuffer.
Set the measure count of the DMM to 50.
