Trigger.timer[N].Delay; Trigger.timer[N].Delaylist - Keithley 2601B Reference Manual

Series 2600B System SourceMeter® Instrument Reference Manual

trigger.timer[N].delay

This attribute sets and reads the timer delay.
Type TSP-Link accessible
Attribute (RW) Yes
Usage
interval = trigger.timer[N].delay
trigger.timer[N].delay = interval
interval
N
Details
Each time the timer is triggered, it uses this delay period.
Assigning a value to this attribute is equivalent to:
trigger.timer[N].delaylist = {interval}
This creates a delay list of one value.
Reading this attribute returns the delay interval that will be used the next time the timer is triggered.
Example
trigger.timer[1].delay = 50e-6

trigger.timer[N].reset()

trigger.timer[N].delaylist

This attribute sets an array of timer intervals.
Type TSP-Link accessible
Attribute (RW) Yes
Usage
intervals = trigger.timer[N].delaylist
trigger.timer[N].delaylist = intervals
intervals
N
Details
Each time the timer is triggered, it uses the next delay period from the array. The default value is an array with
one value of 10 µs.
After all elements in the array have been used, the delays restart at the beginning of the list.
If the array contains more than one element, the average of the delay intervals in the list must be ≥ 50 µs.
