In "Measurement" state, the instrument waits for the elapse of the sweep
delay time (set by the :SENS{1-36}:SWE:DEL) and then starts a
measurement cycle; this process is performed sequentially on each of
those channels that were in "Initiate" state immediately before the
transition to this state, in ascending order of channel number.
When the instrument has finished measuring all of the active channels, the
trigger system behaves in one of the following ways depending on the
setting of the continuous initiation mode.
If continuous initiation mode is off for all channels:
The trigger system switches to "Hold" state (arrow "c" in the above figure).
If continuous initiation mode is on for one of the channels:
The trigger system switches to "Waiting for Trigger" state (arrow "d" in the
above figure).
Channel-wide States and Transitions
"Idle" State
A channel switches to "Initiate" state when one of the following commands
has been executed (arrow "f" in the above figure).
• :INIT{1-36}
• :INIT{1-36}:CONT("ON" specified)
"Initiate" State
A channel in this state is measured just before the entire system switches
to "Measurement" state.
When the instrument has finished measuring a channel, the channel
behaves in one of the following ways depending on the setting of the
continuous initiation mode (set by the :INIT{1-36}:CONT).
If continuous initiation mode is off:
The channel switches to "Idle" state (arrow "g" in the above figure).
If continuous initiation mode is on:
The channel remains in "Initiate" state (arrow "h" in the above figure).
