R&S FSP Remote Control – Description of Commands
INITiate Subsystem
6.11 INITiate Subsystem
The INITiate subsystem controls the init-measurement function in the selected measurement window.
The measurement windows are assigned to INITiate1 (screen A) and INITiate2 (screen B).
INITiate<1|2>:CONMeas
This command continues a stopped measurement at the current position in single-sweep mode. The
function is useful especially for trace functions MAXHold, MINHold and AVERage if the previous
results are not to be cleared with Sweep Count > 0 or Average Count > 0 on restarting the
measurement (INIT:IMMediate resets the previous results on restarting the measurement).
The single-sweep mode is automatically switched on. Synchronization to the end of the indicated
number of measurements can then be performed with the command *OPC, *OPC? or *WAI. In the
continuous-sweep mode, synchronization to the sweep end is not possible since the overall
measurement "never" ends.
Example:
"INIT2:CONT OFF"
'Switches to single-sweep mode.
"DISP:WIND:TRAC:MODE AVER
'Switches on trace averaging.
"SWE:COUN 20"
Setting the sweep counter to 20 sweeps.
"INIT2;*WAI"
'Starts the measurement and waits for the end of the 20 sweeps.
"INIT2:CONM;*WAI"
'Continues the measurement (next 20 sequences) and waits for the end.
Characteristics: *RST value: -
SCPI: device-specific
Mode: A
This command is an event and therefore has no *RST value and no query.
INITiate<1|2>:CONTinuous ON | OFF
This command determines whether the trigger system is continuously initiated (continuous) or
performs single measurements (single).
In analyzer mode, this setting refers to the sweep sequence (switching between continuous/single
sweep).
Example:
"INIT:CONT OFF"
'Switches the sequence in screen B to single sweep.
"INIT:CONT ON"
'Switches the sequence to continuous sweep.
Characteristics: *RST value: ON
SCPI: conform
Mode: A
