Spectrum Analyzer Commands :INITiate Subsystem
MS20xxC PM PN: 10580-00306 Rev. E 6-39
6-8 :INITiate Subsystem
This subsystem controls the triggering of measurements.
Continuous/Single Sweep
:INITiate:CONTinuous
Description: Specifies whether the sweep/measurement is triggered continuously. If
the value is set to ON or 1, then another sweep/measurement is
triggered as soon as the current one is complete. If continuous is set to
OFF or 0, then the instrument enters the “idle” state and waits for the
:INITiate[:IMMediate] command or for :INITiate:CONTinuous
ON. The default value is ON. That is, sending :INIT:CONT is
equivalent to sending :INIT:CONT ON. The query version of the
command returns a 1 if the instrument is continuously
sweeping/measuring and returns a 0 if the instrument is in single
sweep/measurement mode. Note that rapid toggling between ON and
OFF is not allowed. The instrument must be allowed to make a full
sweep before toggling can be done.
