Details
When
bypass
is
ON
and the
scan.trigger.arm.stimulus
is satisfied, the first channel of the scan closes
(the
scan.trigger.channel.stimulus
setting is ignored).
For other channels (other than the first), the channel stimulus must be satisfied before the channel action takes
place.
When
bypass
is
OFF
, every channel (including the first) must satisfy the
scan.trigger.channel.stimulus
setting before the channel action occurs for that step.
Example
scan.bypass = scan.OFF
print(scan.bypass)
Disables the bypass option for scanning and
displays the present bypass state.
Also see
scan.create()
This function deletes the existing scan list and creates a new list of channels and channel patterns to scan.
Type

Affected by
Where saved
Default value
Function Yes
Usage
scan.create(channelList)
channelList
String specifying channels to add
Details
The existing scan list is lost after calling this function.
The items in
channelList
are scanned in the order listed.
If a forbidden channel is included in a range of channels or slot parameter (such as slot 1), the forbidden channel
is ignored and no error is generated. If a forbidden channel is individually specified in the channel list, an error is
generated.
If an error occurs, the scan list of channels or channel patterns is cleared, even though no new scan list is
created.
The function
scan.reset()
clears the list. To clear the scan list without performing a scan reset, send an
empty string for the
channelList
parameter.
Example 1
scan.create("1A01:1A10")
Replaces the active scan list with an empty
scan list, and then adds channels
1A01
through
1A10
on slot 1.
