:IMMediate
This command performs CALC 3.
Usage
:CALCulate3:IMMediate
Details
Description When you change the configuration of the limit test, the next reading is evaluated
according to that new test configuration. If the instrument is not in a continuous measurement mode
(for example, waiting for a manual trigger), the test is not performed until the next reading conversion
occurs.
This action command allows you to re-process the current input data to test new limits. For example,
assume the instrument is in a non-continuous measurement mode and requires a manual trigger to
cause the next reading conversion. Changing the test limits does not affect the last test result.
However, sending the
:IMMediate
command re-processes the data and evaluates the reading
according to the new test limits. Note that sending the
:IMMediate
command does not initiate a
reading conversion.
