Setting Dwell Time
The dwell time is the amount of time that is delayed between each command during the execution of an Auto Sequence program. The dwell time can be from 0 to 180 seconds and can be changed during the program execution. The dwell time has a minimum step size of 1 second.
Command:
[:]PROGram[<channel>][:STEP]:DWELl {?<dwell time> } Where:
<dwell time > is an integer value from 0 to 180. For Example:
:PROG:DWEL 12 Results in 12 seconds of wait time after each command is executed.
Storing an Auto Sequence Program:
Loading a program into memory is done by using the [:]PROGram[<channel>][:RECord]:STARt command. After the start command has been issued, the XG will record all subsequent commands into the auto sequence program buffer. The commands will be recorded into the buffer until the :PROGram[<channel>][:RECord]:STOP command is issued.
Commands:5 [:]PROGram[<channel>][:RECord]:STARt [:]PROGram[<channel>][:RECord]:STOP
Important: If the start recording command is executed then any previously stored Auto Sequence program is deleted.
For example: :PROG:STAR :VOLT 12
:OUTP ON :PROG:DWEL 60
:OUTP OFF
:OUTP ON
:OUTP OFF
