Configuring Transient Response

Use the Transient Response property to set the transient response.

The following table lists the PXIe-4051 transient response settings available in NI-DCPower.

Table 12. Transient Response Settings
Transient Response Description
Slow Increases stability while decreasing the speed of the device. Select Slow if connecting a DUT causes the device to exhibit symptoms of instability, such as unstable readings or excessive noise.
Normal (default) Balances stability and the speed of the device. It is the default transient response setting and is appropriate for most situations.
Fast Increases the speed of the device for improved transient response with benign loads. Select Fast if you need faster response and if doing so does not cause the instrument to exhibit symptoms of instability, such as unstable readings or excessive noise.
Custom Allows freedom to adjust compensation for specific loads. Select Custom if you need to optimize the speed/stability tradeoff.
