Controlling the Measurement
The power sensor offers a bunch of possibilities to control the measurement:
●
Do you want to start the measurement immediately after the initiate command or
do you want to wait for a trigger event?
●
Do you want to start a single measurement cycle or a sequence of measurement
cycles?
●
Do you want to output each new average value as a measurement result or do you
want to bundle more measured values into one result?
9.5.1
Starting and Ending a Measurement
ABORt
Immediately interrupts the current measurement. If the measurement has been started
as a single measurement (
), the sensor goes into the idle
state. However, if a continuous measurement is in progress (
ON
), the trigger system of the sensor enters the waiting for trigger state, and if the trig-
ger condition is met, a new measurement is immediately started.

Usage:
Event
INITiate:ALL
INITiate[:IMMediate]
Starts a single measurement cycle. The sensor changes from the idle state to the wait-
ing 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 sensor enters the waiting for trigger state several times. Once the entire
measurement is completed, a measurement result is available, and the sensor enters
the idle state again.
