INITiate Subsystem

INITiate Subsystem

The INITiate subsystem is used to control the initiation of the trigger. Refer to the TRIGger and ABORt subsystems for related commands.

Continuous or Single Measurements

:INITiate:CONTinuous OFFON01

:INITiate:CONTinuous?

Selects whether the trigger system is continuously initiated or not.

This command affects sweep if not in a measurement, and affects trigger when in a measurement. A “measurement” refers to any of the functions under the MEASURE key. This corresponds to continuous sweep or single sweep operation when not in a measurement, and continuous measurement or single measurement operation when in a measurement.

When not in a measurement, this command does the following:

When ON at the completion of each sweep cycle, the sweep system immediately initiates another sweep cycle.

When OFF, the sweep system remains in an “idle” state until CONTinuous is set to ON or an :INITiate[:IMMediate] command is received. On receiving the :INITiate[:IMMediate] command, it will go through a single sweep cycle, and then return to the “idle” state.

The query returns 1 or 0 into the output buffer. 1 is returned when there is continuous sweeping. 0 is returned when there is only a single sweep.
