The trigger delay is the period between the trigger signal and the
start of the measurement (burst). The trigger delay set by
CONFigure
is 0 seconds for the DC voltage function. The
TRIGger:DELay
command is used to set delays up to 16.7 seconds.
•
CONFigure
sets the sample source such that there is a minimum
delay (sample rate) between measurements in a burst, and a burst
size of 1. The sample rate and burst size are changed with the
SAMPle:SOURce
,
SAMPle:TIMer
, and
SAMPle:COUNt
commands.
SAMPle:SOURce
selects the source which sets the sample rate.
SAMPle:TIMer
sets the rate, and
SAMPle:COUNt
sets the number of
readings in the burst.

The multimeter output buffer can hold eight readings. When the
buffer fills, measurements are suspended until readings are read from
the buffer (by the computer) to make space available.
