12: SCPI command reference 2470 High Voltage SourceMeter Instrument
12-196 2470-901-01 Rev. A / May 2019
Details
This command indicates if an event was ignored because the event detector was already in the
detected state when the event occurred.
This is an indication of the state of the event detector built into the timer itself. It does not indicate if
an overrun occurred in any other part of the trigger model or in any other construct that is monitoring
the delay completion event. It also is not an indication of a delay overrun.
This returns 0 if there is no overrun or 1 if there is an overrun.
Example
Checks the overrun status on trigger timer 1.
