3.4 IQ Waveform Measurement
If the instrument is already in Continuous sweep:
–
:INIT:CONT 1 has no effect
–
:INIT:CONT 0 places the instrument in Single Sweep but has no effect on the
current sequence until k = N, at which point the current sequence will stop and
the instrument will go to the idle state
See "Restart" on page 1832 for details of :INIT:IMMediate.
If the instrument is already in Single sweep, :INIT:CONT OFF has no effect.
If the instrument is already in Single sweep, then pressing Cont/Single in the middle
of a sweep does not restart the sweep or sequence. Similarly, pressing Cont/Single
does not restart the sweep or sequence if the sweep is not in the idle state (for
example, if you are taking a very slow sweep, or the instrument is waiting for a
trigger). Even though pressing Cont/Single in the middle of a sweep does not restart
the sweep, sending :INIT:IMM does reset it.
If the instrument is in Single sweep, and not Averaging/Holding, and you want to
take one more sweep, press Restart.
If the instrument is in Single sweep, and Averaging/Holding, and you want to take
one more sweep without resetting the Average trace or count, go to Meas Setup
and increment the average count by 1 by pressing the Step-Up key while
Average/Hold Num is the active function. You can also do this by sending
:CALC:AVER:TCON UP.
Abort (Remote Command Only)
Stops the current measurement. Aborts the current measurement as quickly as
possible, resets the sweep and trigger systems, and puts the measurement into an
"idle" state. If the instrument is in the process of aligning when :ABORt is sent, the
alignment finishes before the abort function is performed, so :ABORt does not abort
an alignment.
If the instrument is set for Continuous measurement, it sets up the measurement
and initiates a new data measurement sequence with a new data acquisition
(sweep) taken once the trigger condition is met.
If the instrument is set for Single measurement, it remains in the "idle" state until an
:INIT:IMM command is received.
Remote Command
:ABORt
Example
:ABOR
Notes If :INIT:CONT is ON, then a new continuous measurement will start immediately, with sweep (data
acquisition) occurring once the trigger condition has been met
