Query Format
PROGram:TRANsient:ETE?
Description
This query command returns the active Element To Execute. An
element is either a STEP when in transient STEP mode or a SEGMENT
when in transient SEGMENT mode.
The ETE query is useful when a transient execution has been PAUSED
by the “PROGram:TRANsient PAUSe” command. For example, if the
execution is paused in the middle of an element (step or segment)
execution for element “n”, the ETE value will be “n”. If it is paused at
the end of element “n”, the ETE value will be “n+1”.
