RUN is moving the instrument from the programming mode to execution mode.
Dependent on the selected trigger mode, the behavior in Armed mode is different. In
trigger mode Continuous, the enable signal is used to control the execution of the first
segment or sequence. In trigger mode Gated or Triggered, the enable is used as an
additional start input.
