Trigger Commands

Trigger commands consist of trigger and initiate commands. They are used to generate output transients and measurement triggers.

Initiate commands initialize the trigger system. Trigger commands control the remote triggering of the dc source. Trigger commands (and Initate commands) are referenced either by name or by number. The correspondence between names and numbers is:

Sequence Number

Sequence Name

Description

1 (the default)

TRANsient

Output transient trigger sequence

2

ACQuire

Measurement acquire trigger sequence

NOTE: Before you generate a measurement trigger, you must specify either a voltage, current , or DVM measurement acquisition using the SENSe:FUNCtion command.

ABORt

This command cancels any trigger actions presently in process. Pending trigger levels are reset to their corresponding immediate values. ABORt also resets the WTG bit in the Operation Condition Status register (see chapter 7 about programming the status registers). If INITiate:CONTinuous ON has been programmed, the trigger subsystem initiates itself immediately after ABORt, thereby setting WTG. ABORt is executed at power turn on and upon execution of *RCL or RST.

Command Syntax

ABORt

Parameters

None

Examples

ABOR

Related Commands

INIT *RST *TRG TRIG

INITiate:SEQuence

INITiate:NAME

INITiate commands control the enabling of both output and measurement triggers. When a trigger is enabled, an event on a selected trigger source causes the specified triggering action to occur. If the trigger subsystem is not enabled, all triggers are ignored.

Command Syntax INITiate[:IMMediate]:SEQuence[ 1 2 ]

INITiate[:IMMediate]:NAME<name>

Parameters TRANsient ACQuire (for INIT:NAME )

Examples INIT:SEQ2 INIT:NAME TRAN

Related Commands ABOR INIT:CONT TRIG TRIG:SEQ:DEF *TRG
