Triggering Output Change (SEQuence1:TRANsient)
PCR-M/PCR-LE/PCR-LE2 has five different trigger subsystems -TRANsient, SYNChronize,
ACQuire, SIMulation, and PROGram. These features are mapped to SEQuence1 to
SEQuence5 respectively, as the SCPI specification generally categorizes each trigger
subsystem as a numbered Trigger Sequence.
The TRANsient (SEQuence1) group is a trigger subsystem that changes the output voltage
and frequency settings.
State
The three states are available in the sequence operation.
Output Change Control
Using TRIGger:SEQuence1 (or TRIGger:TRANsient) subsystem allows you to synchronize the
output changes with a given trigger. This is convenient if you want to synchronize output
changes with other instrument actions such as external DC power supply or electronic loads.
To reserve triggered settings, use the VOLTage:TRIGgered and FREQuency:TRIGgered
commands. Keep in mind that the MODE settings for each output item must be set to STEP
prior to using triggers.
110 'Sets the voltage to 110 V
60 'Sets the frequency to 60 Hz
STEP 'Sets the voltage trigger mode to STEP
STEP 'Sets the frequency trigger mode to STEP
100 'Sets the voltage that will be set when a trigger is
received to 100 V
50 'Sets the frequency that will be set when a trigger
is received to 50 Hz
BUS 'Sets the trigger source to BUS
'Initiates sequence 1 (starts the trigger function)
'Applies a software trigger to sequence 1
If you repeatedly change the output, a trigger error (-210) may occur. By using the *OPC
command, you can prevent this error.
'Apply a trigger and wait until the output change is
complete.
