integrate exponent

Change the hardware integration period to (8.192e-4 x 2^exponent) seconds.

Arguments:
IntTime exponent
The integration period as a power of 2 multiplier of 819.2 us.

Example:
The following example sets the hardware integration time to just under 1.68 seconds.
  integrate 11

Context:
When the control system is started, the real-time scanner sets up the system timing generator to integrate every 1.68 seconds. This can be changed using the integrate command. The integration time is specified as a power of two exponent multiplier of the minimum hardware integration time. This results in a physical time of (8.192e-4 x 2^exponent) seconds.

Typical values include:
