Description
This command is used to manually set a delay (settling time) for the
source. After the programmed source is turned on, this delay occurs to
allow the source level to settle before a measurement is taken. Note that
this delay is the same for both the I-Source and V-Source.
Do not confuse this source delay with the trigger delay. The source
delay is part of the device action (SDM cycle) while the trigger delay
occurs before the device action. See
Section 11
, “
Trigger models
,” for
more information.
Auto delay can instead be used to automatically set the source delay.
(See next command.)
AUTO <b>
:SOURce[1]:DELay:AUTO <b>
Enable/disable auto delay for source
Parameters
<b> =
0 or OFF
Disable auto delay
1 or ON
Enable auto delay
Query
:AUTO?
Query state of auto delay
Description
This command is used to enable or disable auto delay. When enabled,
the instrument will automatically select a delay period that is appropri-
ate for the present source/measure setup configuration (
Table 3-3
).
*RST and SYST:PRES default is ON.
