TRIGGER.
Tell Devices Perform Predefined Action.
__________
___________________________________
Purpose.
One or more devices receives the addressed
__________
command Group Execute Trigger so causing them to respond by
performing a previously defined set of actions.
The TRIGGER command is a very flexible way to
command one or more devices to take part in a test and
measurement routine. If the devices are say device 2 a voltage
supply and device 3 an ammeter. Having previously specified
that the voltage source outputs put 5 volts dc across the device
under test, a resistor, and the ammeter measures the current in
milli Amps, the TRIGGER 2,3 command performs the test on
the resistor.
If no device address is specified then the PSI BOX simply
sends the GET command, this will active all currently listening
devices. If one or more devices addresses are given then those
devices are commanded to Listen and then told via the GET
command to perform the pre programmed action.
