INITiate[:IMMediate]
Changes the state of the triggering system from "idle" to "wait-for-trigger",
and clears the previous set of measurements from reading memory.
Measurements begin when the specified trigger conditions are satisfied
following the receipt of INIT.
Example: CONF:VOLT:DC 10
SAMP:COUN 5
TRIG:SOUR BUS
INIT
*TRG
FETC?
●Storing measurements in reading memory with INITiate is faster than
sending measurements to the instrument's output buffer using READ?
(provided you do not send FETCh? until done). The INITiate command is
also an "overlapped" command. This means that after executing INITiate,
you can send other commands that do not affect the measurements.
●To retrieve the measurements from the reading memory, use FETCh?. Use
DATA:REMove? or R? to read and erase all or part of the available
measurements.
●Use ABORt to return to idle.
