Details
This command returns the state of the trigger model. The instrument checks the state of a started
trigger model every 100 ms.
This command returns the trigger state and the block that the trigger model last executed.
The trigger model states are:
•
Idle: The trigger model is stopped
•
Running: The trigger model is running
•
Waiting: The trigger model has been in the same wait block for more than 100 ms
•
Empty: The trigger model is selected, but no blocks are defined
•
Building: Blocks have been added
•
Failed: The trigger model is stopped because of an error
•
Aborting: The trigger model is stopping
•
Aborted: The trigger model is stopped
Example
print(trigger.model.state())
An example output if the trigger model is waiting and is at block
9 would be:
trigger.STATE_WAITING trigger.STATE_EMPTY 9
