Triggering Commands
INITiate
Cause the trigger system to initiate. This command completes one full trigger
cycle when the trigger source is an immediate and initiates the trigger
subsystem when the trigger source is bus.
TRIGger:DELay { <seconds> | MINimum | MAXimum}
Set the time delay between the detection of an event on the specified trigger
source and the start of any corresponding trigger action on the power supply
output. Select from 0 to 3600 seconds.
MIN
= 0 seconds.
MAX
= 3600 seconds.
At
*RST
, this value is set to 0 seconds.
TRIGger:DELay?[MINimum | MAXimum]
Query the trigger delay.
TRIGger:SOURce {BUS | IMMediate}
Select the source from which the power supply will accept a trigger. The power
supply will accept a bus (software) trigger or an internal immediate trigger. At
*RST
, the bus trigger source is selected.
TRIGger:SOURce?
Query the present trigger source. Returns ‘‘BUS’’ or ‘‘IMM’’.
*TRG
Generate a trigger to the trigger subsystem that has selected a bus (software)
trigger as its source
(TRIG:SOUR BUS)
. The command has the same effect
as the Group Execute Trigger (GET) command. For RS-232 operation, make
sure the power supply is in the remote interface mode by sending the
SYST:REM
command first.
