Multi Point Acquisition:Sample Interval Property

Short Name: Sample Interval

Property of niDMM

Specifies the amount of time in seconds the DMM waits between measurements. This property only applies when the Sample Trigger property is set to INTERVAL. The default value (-1) ensures that the DMM settles for a recommended time, which is the same as using an immediate trigger.

The NI 4065 and NI 4070/4071/4072 use the value specified in this property as additional delay. On the NI 4065 and NI 4070/4071/4072, the onboard timing resolution is 34.72 ns and the valid range is 0-149 s.

On the NI 4060, the value for this property is used as the settling time. When this property is set to 0, the NI 4060 does not settle between measurements. The onboard timing resolution is 1 micro s on the NI 4060.

Only positive values are valid when setting the sample interval.

Note  The NI 4050 is not supported.
