Settling Time

The amount of time to allow for signal settling after setting up a measurement (switching to the channel, setting the excitation) and before making the measurement. The default settling time is 500 microseconds, with a minimum of 10 microseconds and a maximum of 50000 microseconds. Minimum settling time is 20 microseconds; maximum settling time is 600 ms. If 0 is entered, a default of 500 microseconds is used.

Additional SettlingTime may be necessary to allow the signal to settle with high resistance or long lead lengths (higher capacitance). The time it will take to make the measurement will include the measurement itself, the SettlingTime, f_N1, and whether or not parameters are set to remove voltage offset errors. Using either RevDiff or RevEx causes two SettlingTimes to occur per channel; four SettlingTimes will occur when using both RevDiff and RevEx.

Type: Constant (or expression that evaluates as a constant)
