5-5 :INITiate Subsystem VNA Commands
5-44 PN: 10580-00319 Rev. N S412E PM
:INITiate[:IMMediate]
Description: Initiates a sweep/measurement. Use this command in combination with
:STATus:OPERation? to synchronize the capture of one complete set
of data. When this command is sent, the “sweep complete” bit of
:STATus:OPERation? is set to 0, indicating that the measurement is
not completed. The data collection is then triggered. The controlling
program can poll :STATus:OPERation? to determine the status.
When the “sweep complete” bit is set to 1, data is ready to be retrieved.
If sweep is set to Run, and sweep type is set to Continuous, then
sending the :INIT:IMM command restarts the sweep.
If sweep is set to Hold, and sweep type is set to Single, then sending the
:INIT:IMM command starts a sweep (instrument is temporarily in
Run). After a single sweep is completed, the instrument returns to Hold.
