ARM
The ARM subsystem selects the number of scanning cycles (1 - 32767) for each INIT command. This command does not apply to downloaded scan lists. For downloaded scan lists, use INIT:CONT ON for multiple scans.
Subsystem Syntax | ARM |
| :COUNt <number> MIN MAX |
| :COUNt? [MIN MAX] |
:COUNt | ARM:COUNt <number> MIN MAX allows scanning cycles to occur a |
| multiple of times (1 to 32767) with one INITiate command and when |
| INITiate:CONTinuous OFF 0 is set. MIN sets 1 scanning cycle and MAX |
| sets 32,767 scanning cycles. |

∙*RST Condition: ARM:COUNt 1
Example Setting Ten Scanning Cycles
ARM:COUN 10 | Set 10 scanning cycles. |
SCAN (@100:115) | Sets channel list. |
INIT | Starts scanning cycle. |
:COUNt? ARM:COUNt? [MIN MAX] returns the current number of scanning cycles set by ARM:COUNt. ARM:COUN? MIN returns 1 and ARM:COUN? MAX returns 32767.
