Remote Interface Operation (By software or internal trigger)
By software trigger:
The software trigger is similar to the single triggering, but
instead of using the “TRIGGER” button on the front panel, you send a command from
your PC to the multimeter to generate an event. For using software trigger, use the
following command from your PC terminal to set trigger source:
TRIGger:SOURce BUS
By internal trigger:
The internal trigger is the default trigger mode for the Remote
Interface Operation. In the internal trigger mode, a trigger signal will be issued
whenever the multimeter is in the wait-for-trigger state. To set the internal trigger,
use the following command from your PC terminal:
TRIGger:SOURce IMMediate
3.2.3 Trigger Setting
In DL-1060, you can specify a variety of trigger settings including the number of
samples per trigger, the number of triggers per event, reading hold, and the trigger
delay for your measurements.
A. Number of samples on each trigger
By default, the multimeter takes only one reading on each trigger, but you can
instruct the multimeter to take specific number (up to 2000) of readings each time it
receives a trigger. The defined input setting is stored in a volatile memory which will
be cleared after the meter has been turned off and the default value will be restored.
You can set the number of samples on each trigger through front panel or the remote
interface.
