TRIGger[:SEQuence[1]]:DELay:AUTO <boolean>
This command is used to determine whether or not there is a settling- time
delay before a measurement is made.
When this command is set to:
• ON, the power sensor inserts a settling- time delay before taking the
requested measurement and for subsequent measurements. This settling
time allows the internal digital filter to be updated with new values to
produce valid, accurate measurement results. The trigger with delay
command allows settling time for the internal amplifiers and filters. It does
not allow time for power sensor delay.
In cases of large power changes, the delay may not be sufficient for
complete settling. Accurate readings can be assured by taking two
successive measurements for comparison.
• OFF, no settling- time delay is inserted and the power sensor makes the
measurement immediately a trigger is received.
• ONCE, a settling- time delay is inserted before taking the requested
measurement, for one measurement only.
