IEEE-488.2 Common Commands
VX4101A MultiPaq Instrument User Manual 3–305
command is considered complete as soon as its action has been initiated. The
instrument may continue processing, collecting, or measuring after the command
has been reported as complete. If, for instance, it is desired to wait for a
measurement to complete, it is not sufficient to do a *WAI after sending an INIT
command. Rather, one should set up and wait for a service request to be
generated by a negative transition of the Measurement-In-Progress bit of the
event register. In the following example, the DMM measurement is delayed until
the relay is closed.
