Triggering commands
INITiate
Cause the trigger system to initiate. This command
completes one full trigger cycle when the trigger source is an
immediate and initiates the trigger subsystem when the
trigger source is bus.
TRIGger:DELay {<seconds>|MINimum|MAXimum}
Set the time delay between the detection of an event on the
specified trigger source and the start of any corresponding
trigger action on the power supply output. Select from 0 to
3600 seconds. MIN = 0 seconds. MAX = 3600 seconds. At
*RST, this value is set to 0 seconds.
TRIGger:DELay? [MINimum|MAXimum]
Query the trigger delay.
TRIGger:SOURce {BUS|IMMediate}
Select the source from which the power supply will accept a
trigger. The power supply will accept a bus (software) trigger
or an internal immediate trigger. At *RST, the bus trigger
source is selected.
TRIGger:SOURce?
Query the present trigger source. Returns BUS or IMM.
*TRG
Generate a trigger to the trigger subsystem that has selected
a bus (software) trigger as its source (TRIG:SOUR BUS). The
command has the same effect as the Group Execute Trigger
(GET) command. For RS- 232 operation, make sure the power
supply is in the remote interface mode by sending the
SYST:REM command first.
