If the event detectors are configured to clear automatically because the smuX.trigger.autoclear
attribute is set to smuX.ENABLE, make sure that smuX.trigger.measure.set() is issued after
the SMU has entered the trigger layer. This function can also be used to start actions on the SMU in
case of a missed trigger event.
The SMU automatically clears all event detectors when the smuX.trigger.initiate() function is
executed. Call this function after the sweep is initiated.
Example
smua.trigger.measure.set()
Sets the measure event detector of SMU channel A.

Usage
eventID = smuX.trigger.measure.stimulus
smuX.trigger.measure.stimulus = eventID
Event that triggers the measurement detector
Source-measure unit (SMU) channel (for example,
smua.trigger.measure.stimulus applies to SMU channel A)
Details
Set this attribute to the event ID of any trigger event generator to wait for that event. When set, the
SMU waits for the event at the measurement event detector portion of the trigger model.
Set this attribute to zero to bypass waiting for an event (the SMU continues uninterrupted through the
remote trigger model). Set eventID to one of the existing trigger event IDs shown in the
following table.
