14 TRIGger Subsystem
644 N1911A/1912A P-Series Power Meters Programming Guide
INITiate[1]|2:CONTinuous <boolean>
This command sets the power meter for either a single trigger cycle or continuous
trigger cycles. A trigger cycle means that the power meter exits the wait for
trigger state and starts a measurement.
When entering local mode, if TRIGger[:SEQuence[1]|2]:SOURce is set to
INT[[1]|2] or EXT, INITiate:CONTinuous is not changed. For other trigger
sources, INITiate:CONTinuous is set to ON.
If INITiate:CONTinuous is set to:
– OFF, the trigger system remains in the idle state until it is set to ON, or
INITiate:IMMediate is received. Once this trigger cycle is complete the
trigger system returns to the idle state.
– ON, the trigger system is initiated and exits the idle state. On completion of
each trigger cycle, the trigger system immediately commences another trigger
cycle without entering the idle state.
