Comments
r
If the instrument is not in an idle state, then this command has no
effect and an error code is generated
:INIT[:IMM] is an event and therefore has no *RST state. A *RST
command will however set the instrument to idle.
w
If :INIT:CONT OFF is selected, when :INIT[:IMM] is commanded,
the system is enabled for one cycle only. The instrument then
reverts to idle awaiting another :INIT[:IMM] command.
w
If
:INIT:CONT ON is selected, the instrument starts sweeping as
soon as it enters :FREQ:MODE, SWEep or LIST
