Sequoia Series 139
INITiate[:IMMediate][:TRANsient]
The INITiate command controls the initiation of the transient generation or measurement acquisition
trigger system. They cause the trigger system to make a transition from the Idle state to the Waiting-
for-Trigger state. If the trigger system is not in the Idle state, the initiate commands are ignored.
If both the transient generation and the measurement acquisition trigger systems are initiated at the
same time, the first trigger event that occurs will trigger the measurement system. The transient system
will trigger on the next trigger event. Thus, the measurement system has a higher trigger priority than
the transient system. If the measurement trigger is generated by a transient event, the acquisition
system should be initiated first so it is waiting for the trigger caused by the transient system.

TRIGger
When the trigger subsystem has been initiated, the TRIGger command generates a trigger signal
regardless of the selected trigger source.

TRIGger:DELay
This command sets the time delay between the detection of a trigger signal and the start of any
corresponding trigger action. After the time delay has elapsed, the trigger is implemented unless the
trigger system is also waiting for a sync signal that has been specified by
TRIGger:SYNChronous:PHASe.
INITiate:ACQuire
The INITiate:ACQuire command controls the initiation of the measurements trigger system. They
cause the trigger system to make a measurement from the Idle state to the Waiting-for-Trigger state.
If the trigger system is not in the Idle state, the initiate commands are ignored.
Command Syntax INITiate:ACQuire
Parameters None
Examples INIT:ACQ
