Question

Why can’t I select the fastest data logger time of 20us/sample using the 14585A software for my N6705?

Answer

To configure the 14585A software to the fastest data logging rate of 20 us/sample, the "SOURCE" selection must be changed to "N6705x".

Below are the two data logging "SOURCE" choices and their differences:

14585A - uses the 14585A software's data logging 
N6705x - uses the external data logging function of the N6705.

NOTE: External The Data Logger function is not available on Keysight N6705 mainframes with Option 055 "Delete Data Logger".
