smuX.trigger.IDLE_EVENT_ID
This constant contains the idle event number.
Usage
eventID = smuX.trigger.IDLE_EVENT_ID
Source-measure unit (SMU) channel (for example,
smua.trigger.IDLE_EVENT_ID applies to SMU channel A)
Details
Set the stimulus of any trigger object to the value of this constant to have the trigger object respond to
idle events from this SMU.
Example
trigger.timer[1].stimulus = smua.trigger.IDLE_EVENT_ID
Trigger timer 1 when the SMU returns to the idle layer.

Triggering (on page 4-1)
smuX.trigger.initiate()
This function initiates a sweep operation.
Usage
smuX.trigger.initiate()
Source-measure unit (SMU) channel (for example, smua.trigger.initiate()
applies to SMU channel A)
Details
This function causes the SMU to clear the four trigger model event detectors and enter its trigger
model (moves the SMU from the idle state into the arm layer).
To perform source actions during the sweep, before calling this function, it is necessary to configure
and enable one of the following sweep source actions:
• smuX.trigger.source.linearY()
• smuX.trigger.source.listY()
• smuX.trigger.source.logY()
