ROUTe:CHANnel:DELay:AUTO

Syntax

ROUTe:CHANnel:DELay:AUTO <mode>, (@<ch_list>)

ROUTe:CHANnel:DELay:AUTO? (@<ch_list>)

Description

This command disables or enables an automatic channel delay on the specified multiplexer channels. If enabled, the instrument determines the delay based on function, range, integration time, and ac filter setting.

Used With:

  • 34921A through 34925A Multiplexer Modules

  • 34950A Digital I/O Module (digital input and counter channels only)

  • 34952A Multifunction Module (digital input and totalizer channels only)

Parameters

Name

Type

Range of Values

Default Value

<mode>

Boolean

{OFF|0|ON|1}

Automatic

<ch_list>

Numeric

One or more channels in the form (@sccc).

This is a required parameter

Remarks

  • Selecting a specific channel delay using the ROUTe:CHANnel:DELay command disables the automatic channel delay.

  • The default channel delays for ac measurements do not account for worst case settling delays that can occur when measuring ac signals with large dc offsets. Significant measurement errors may result. Use the TRIGger:DELay command (for stand-alone DMM measurements) or ROUTe:CHANnel:DELay command (for scanned measurements) to allow adequate settling time before the measurement.

  • The CONFigure and MEASure? commands set the channel delay to Automatic.

  • The instrument sets the channel delay to Automatic after a Factory Reset ( *RST command).

Return Format

The query command returns "0" (OFF) or "1" (ON) for each channel specified. Multiple responses are separated by commas.

Examples

The following command enables an automatic channel delay on channels 3 and 13 in slot 1.

ROUT:CHAN:DEL:AUTO ON,(@1003,1013)

The following query returns the automatic channel delay settings on channels 3 and 13 in slot 1.

ROUT:CHAN:DEL:AUTO? (@1003,1013)

Typical Response:  1,1
