5-74 SCPI Command Reference
:TRIGger commands
:COUNt <n>
:TRIGger[:SEQuence[1]]:COUNt <n> Set measure count
Parameters <n> = 1 to 9999 Specify count
INF Sets count to infinite
DEFault Sets count to 1
MINimum Sets count to 1
MAXimum Sets count to 9999
Query :COUNt? Queries programmed count
:COUNt? DEFault Queries *RST default count
:COUNt? MINimum Queries lowest allowable count
:COUNt? MAXimum Queries highest allowable count
Description This command is used to specify how many times operation loops around in
the trigger operation. For example, if the count is set to ten, operation
continues to loop around until ten device actions are performed. After the
tenth action, operation proceeds back up to the start of the trigger model.
Note that each loop places operation at the control source where it waits for
the programmed event.
:DELay <n>
:TRIGger[:SEQuence[1]]:DELay <n> Set trigger model delay
Parameters <n> = 0 to 999999.999 Specify delay in seconds
DEFault 0 second delay
MINimum 0 second delay
MAXimum 999999.999 second delay
Query :DELay? Query the programmed delay
:DELay? DEFault Query the *RST default delay
:DELay? MINimum Query the lowest allowable delay
:DELay? MAXimum Query the highest allowable delay
Description The delay is used to delay operation of the trigger model. After the
programmed event occurs, the instrument waits until the delay period expires
before performing the Device Action in the Trigger Model.
The delay time can also be set by using the AUTO parameter. If AUTO is set
to 1 or on, the delay period is enabled and will occur. If AUTO is set to 0 or
off, the delay period is not enabled, and no delay will occur.
