Syntax

[SENSe:]COUNter:TOTalize[:DATA]? (@<ch_list>)

Description

This command reads the count on the specified totalizer channels on the 34950A Digital I/O Module. If you have configured the count to be reset when it is read (see CONFigure:TOTalize and [SENSe:]COUNter:TOTalize:TYPE commands), then this command will reset the count to "0" after it is read. The count is reset regardless of whether the specified channels are in a scan list or even whether a scan is in progress.

Used With:

  • 34950A Digital I/O Module

Remarks

  • If you send this command while an initiated measurement is in progress (see [SENSe:]COUNter:INITiate command), the query will wait until the measurement is complete before returning the count.

  • The output from this command is affected by the settings of the FORMat:READing commands. Depending on the formats selected, each reading may or may not be stored with measurement units, time stamp, channel number, and alarm status information.

Return Format

The command returns an unsigned decimal value representing the count on each totalizer channel specified (a full 32-bit count is returned). Multiple responses are separated by commas.

The following command reads the count on totalizer channels 301 and 302 on the module in slot 3.
