TRIGger:SOURce(?) {BUS|IMMediate|EXTernal}
Description Sets the source from which the Meter will expect a measurement trigger.
Parameters <n> = BUS Sets the Meter to expect a trigger through the
IEEE-488 bus or upon execution of a *TRG
command.
IMMediate Selects Meter’s internal triggering system.
EXTernal Sets the Meter to sense triggers through the
trigger jack on the rear panel of the Meter.
Examples TRIG:SOUR BUS Sets the Meter to expect a trigger through the
IEEE-488 bus or upon execution of a *TRG
command.
Query TRIG:SOUR? Retrieves the trigger source for which the Meter
has been set (BUS, IMM, or EXT).
TRIGger:DELay <n>
Description Sets the delay between receiving a trigger and the beginning of
measurement cycle.
Parameters <n> = 0 to 3600 Delay specified in seconds.
MINimum Delay set to 0 seconds.
MAXimum Delay set to 3600 seconds.
Examples TRIG:DEL 14 Sets the trigger delay to 14 seconds.
Query TRIG:DEL? Retrieves the amount of time set for a trigger
delay.
TRIG:DEL? MIN Returns 0 seconds
TRIG:DEL? MAX Returns 3600 seconds
TRIGger:DELay:AUTO <n>
Description Enables or disables automatic trigger delay. The amount of delay is set
based on selected function, integration time, and filter setting. When a
specific trigger delay is set using the TRIG:DELAY <n> command,
automatic trigger delay is disabled. This setting is stored in volatile
memory.
Parameters <n> = ON or 1 Automatic trigger delay is enabled.
OFF or 0 Automatic trigger delay is disabled.
Examples TRIG:DEL:AUTO ON Enables automatic trigger delay
Query TRIG:DEL:AUTO? Retrieves the state of the automatic trigger delay
( 0 = OFF, 1 = ON).
SAMPle:COUNt {<value>|MINimum|MAXimum}
Description Sets the number of measurements the Meter takes per trigger. This setting
is stored in volatile memory.
Parameters <n> = 0 to 50,000 Number of measurements per trigger
MINimum Number of measurements per trigger set to 1.
MAXimum Number of measurements per trigger set to
50,000.
Examples SAMP:COUN 2450 Number of measurements per trigger set to
2,450.
