Chapter 4 Command Reference
:INITiate Subsystem
When a single measurement is in progress (:INIT:CONT is OFF):
– Error -213 (Init ignored) is generated and the state of
INIT:CONT is unaffected by :INIT:CONT ON.
– Error -210 (Trigger error) is generated by INIT:CONT OFF.
Note that the Counter powers up with :INIT:CONT set to ON,
but *RST sets :INIT:CONT to OFF.

:INITiate[:IMMediate]
This event command causes the instrument to initiate either a single measurement
or a block of measurements.
When
:TRIG:COUN:AUTO is OFF, or
:CALC3:AVER[:STAT] is OFF, or
[:SENS]:FUNC[:ON] is Totalize function, or
[:SENS]:FUNC[:ON] is any Voltage Peaks function,
then :INIT[:IMM] initiates a single measurement.
When
:TRIG:COUN:AUTO is ON, and
:CALC3:AVER[:STAT] is ON, and
[:SENS]:FUNC[:ON] is not Totalize or Voltage Peak function,
then :INIT[:IMM] initiates a complete block of measurements.
See :TRIG:COUN:AUTO for specifics.
