Triggering Commands
INITiate
This command causes the trigger system to initiate. This command completes
one full trigger cycle when the trigger source is an immediate and initiates the
trigger subsystem when the trigger source is bus.
TRIGger:DELay {<seconds>| MINimum | MAXimum}
This command sets the time delay between the detection of an event on the
specified trigger source and the start of any corresponding trigger action on
the power supply output. Select from 0 to 3600 seconds.
MIN
= 0 seconds.
MAX
= 3600 seconds. At
*RST
, this value is set to 0 seconds.
TRIGger:DELay?
This command queries the trigger delay.
TRIGger:SOURce {BUS | IMMediate}
This command selects the source from which the power supply will accept a
trigger. The power supply will accept a bus (software) trigger or an internal
immediate trigger. At
*RST
, the bus trigger source is selected.
TRIGger:SOURce?
This command queries the present trigger source. Returns ‘‘BUS’’ or ‘‘IMM’’.
*TRG
This command generates a trigger to the trigger subsystem that has selected a
bus (software) trigger as its source
(TRIG:SOUR BUS)
. The command has
the same effect as the Group Execute Trigger (GET) command. For RS-232
operation, make sure the power supply is in the remote interface mode by
sending the
SYST:REM
command first.
