I am trying program my 2400 SMU to average 5 readings using the filter command

SENS:AVER:TCON REP
SENS:AVER:COUN 5

I have it set up to source voltage and measure current.  I am stepping through voltages and I assume that this would measure the current 5 times and output the results at each voltage.   I would think that this function would only average the current but it is also averaging the voltage.
I have attached my Python code.

What am I doing wrong?

Thank you

Hello,
To make sure I understand this correctly: Are you wanting to take X number of voltage steps and take ONE current reading per step, then average the current readings only but still report each individual voltage step? EX; 1V, 1A | 2V, 1.5A | 3V 2A... AVERage [1, 1.5, 2]
It is possible to build something that functions equivalently or similarly to how I just described. Reporting the voltage individually against the average current readings will not work. The average function built within the unit is simple in its application but sort of limited to how it can be configured. It will average all of your readings and report one value. i.e. one voltage average and one current average.
