Setting parameters:
<state>
Usage: Setting only
INITiate<Measurement>[:IMMediate]
Starts a single measurement cycle. The power sensor changes from the idle state to
the waiting for trigger state. As soon as the trigger condition is fulfilled, the sensor
begins the measurement. Depending on the number of trigger events that are required,
e.g. for averaging, the power sensor enters the waiting for trigger state several times.
Once the entire measurement is completed, a measurement result is available, and the
power sensor enters the idle state again.
Use the command only after the continuous measurement mode has been disabled
using
INITiate<Measurement>:CONTinuous OFF
.
The command is not fully R&S NRP2 compatible. If port 1 is assigned to measure-
ment 1 and so on, the command works. If port 1 is assigned to measurement 2, for
example, enable the R&S NRP2 emulation using
SYSTem:LANGuage "NRP2"

Measurement
Example: If you work in a sender/receiver setup, you need to trigger the
receiver before triggering the sender. To prevent overlapping
execution, use
*WAI
, see also Chapter 14.3, "Command
sequence and synchronization" , on page 475. In this example,
sensor 2 is the receiver, sensor 1 is the sender:
INIT2
*WAI
INIT1
Usage: Event
