INITiate Subsystem
The INITiate subsystem is used to control the init–measurement function.
Commands of the INITiate Subsystem
– INITiate<1|2>[:IMMediate]
– INITiate<1|2>:CONMeas
– INITiate<1|2>:CONTinuous
– INITiate<1|2>:DISPlay
– INITiate<1|2>:ESPectrum
– INITiate<1|2>:SPURious
INITiate<1|2>[:IMMediate]
The command initiates a new measurement sequence.
With sweep count > 0 or average count > 0, this means a restart of the indicated number of
measurements. With trace functions MAXHold, MINHold and AVERage, the previous results are
reset on restarting the measurement.
In single sweep mode, synchronization to the end of the indicated number of measurements can
be achieved with the command *OPC, *OPC? or *WAI. In continuous–sweep mode,
synchronization to the sweep end is not possible since the overall measurement never ends.
The numeric suffixes <1|2> are irrelevant for this command.
This command is an event and therefore has no *RST value and no query.
Example
INIT:CONT OFF
Switches to single sweep mode.
DISP:WIND:TRAC:MODE AVER
Activates trace averaging.
SWE:COUN 20
Setting the sweep counter to 20 sweeps.
INIT;*WAI
Starts the measurement and waits for the end of the 20 sweeps.
