The Arm and Trigger Sources can be changed while the module is scanning (but
not in the continuous mode). This provides a way to stop triggering when you
want to change the
TRIGger:TIMer[:PERiod] <
trig_interval
>
. To do this, execute:
ARM:SOURce IMMediate
Must be IMMediate when SOURce not TIMer.
TRIGger:SOURce BUS
or
TRIGger:SOURce HOLD
To stop scanning.
TRIGger:TIMer <
new_interval
>
Change the timer interval.
TRIGger:SOURce TIMer
Return to timed scans.
•
When
TRIGger:SOURce
is
TIMer
,
TRIGger:TIMer:MODE
is set to
SYNC
, and
INITiate:CONTinuous
is
ON
, an
ARM
event is required only to trigger the first scan.
After that, the timer continues to run and the module goes to the wait-for-trigger state,
ready for the next timer trigger. An
INITiate:CONTinuous OFF
command will return
the module to the trigger idle state after the current scan is completed. See
TRIGger:SOURce
and
TRIGger:TIMer:MODE
for more details.
•
While
ARM:SOURce
is
IMMediate
, you need only
INITiate
the trigger system to
start a measurement scan.
