5 Triggering and Gating

–delay source IMMediate disables the delay settings and no gate delay occurs.
CONFigure and MEASure do not change the delay source setting. Following a
reset (*RST) or instrument preset (SYSTem:PRESet or Preset key), delay source
IMMediate is selected.
–delay source EVENts delays the gate start (open) until a specified number of
events (edges) as configured by the INPut subsystem occur on the input
channel. For two-channel time interval measurements, delay events are
counted on the ‘start’ channel. For frequency ratio measurements, delay
events are counted on the ‘denominator’ channel.
The number of events is specified with the command:
[SENSe:]GATE:STARt:DELay:EVENts {<count>|MINimum|MAXimum|DEFault}
[SENSe:]GATE:STARt:DELay:EVENts? (query form)
–delay source TIME delays the gate start (open) for a period set by the
command:
[SENSe:]GATE:STARt:DELay:TIME {<time>|MINimum|MAXimum|DEFault}
[SENSe:]GATE:STARt:DELay:TIME? (query form)
