trigger.model.setblock() — trigger.BLOCK_WAIT
This function defines a trigger model block that waits for an event before allowing the trigger model to continue.

Usage
trigger.model.setblock(blockNumber, trigger.BLOCK_WAIT, event)
trigger.model.setblock(blockNumber, trigger.BLOCK_WAIT, event, clear)
trigger.model.setblock(blockNumber, trigger.BLOCK_WAIT, event, clear, logic, event)
trigger.model.setblock(blockNumber, trigger.BLOCK_WAIT, event, clear, logic, event,
event)
blockNumber
The sequence of the block in the trigger model
event
The event that must occur before the trigger block allows trigger execution
to continue (see Details)
clear
To clear previously detected trigger events when entering the wait block:
trigger.CLEAR_ENTER
To immediately act on any previously detected triggers and not clear them
(default): trigger.CLEAR_NEVER
logic
If each event must occur before the trigger model continues:
trigger.WAIT_AND
If at least one of the events must occur before the trigger model continues:
trigger.WAIT_OR
Details
You can use the wait block to synchronize measurements with other instruments and devices.
You can set the instrument to wait for the following events:
• Front-panel TRIGGER key press
• Notify (only available when using remote commands)
• Command interface trigger
• Digital input/output signals, such as DIGIO and TSP-Link
• LAN
• Blender
• Timer
• Analog trigger
• External in trigger
The event can occur before trigger model execution reaches the wait block. If the event occurs after
trigger model execution starts but before the trigger model execution reaches the wait block, the
trigger model records the event. By default, when trigger model execution reaches the wait block, it
executes the wait block without waiting for the event to happen again (the clear parameter is set to
never).
The instrument clears the memory of the recorded event when trigger model execution is at the start
block and when the trigger model exits the wait block. It also clears the recorded trigger event when
the clear parameter is set to enter.
