You dirty hacks will probably work, but what you REALLY want is to read out your HV always as fast as possible, not only during run transitions or ramping. We had a case where a detector produced electrostatic discharges which only lasted for a second or so, and we were happy to detect this in spikes in the HV current. With measurements of only one per minute we would not have realized that so quicky.

Dear Stefan,
Thank you for the advice. I will try to modify the driver as you say. As for the dynamical change of readout rate, basically you are telling me that is not achievable without dirty hacks like mine and it is better to find a way to avoid it.
