INITiate<n>:CONMeas
This command restarts a (single) measurement that has been stopped (using
ABORt
)
or finished in single sweep mode.
The measurement is restarted at the beginning, not where the previous measurement
was stopped.
, this command does not reset traces in
maxhold, minhold or average mode. Therefore it can be used to continue measure-
ments using maxhold or averaging functions.

DISP:WIND:TRAC:MODE AVER

Setting the sweep counter to 20 sweeps.
INIT;*WAI
Starts the measurement and waits for the end of the 20 sweeps.
INIT:CONM;*WAI

INITiate<n>:CONTinuous
<State>
This command controls the sweep mode for an individual channel.
Note that in single sweep mode, you can synchronize to the end of the measurement
with *OPC, *OPC? or *WAI. In continuous sweep mode, synchronization to the end of
the measurement is not possible. Thus, it is not recommended that you use continuous
sweep mode in remote control, as results like trace data or markers are only valid after
a single sweep end synchronization.
For details on synchronization see
