Section 7: Triggering
DELAY
This delay is used to hold up operation in the scan layer. After the scan event occurs, the instrument
waits until the delay period times out (0 to 999999.999 seconds) before proceeding to the measure
layer.
COUNT
This menu item defines the number of times operation returns to the arm layer.
INFINITE: Use this selection to continuously return operation to the arm layer.
ENTER-ARM-COUNT: With this selection, the user determines the number of times operation returns
to the arm layer. You can program the Model 6517B to arm up to 99999 times.
CONTROL
Use this menu item to enable or disable the source bypass. The source bypass is used to bypass the
scan event on the first pass through the scan layer.
SOURCE: With this selection, the source bypass is enabled. The scan event is bypassed on the first
pass through the scan layer. This allows operation to proceed into the measure layer without having
to wait for the programmed event.

To select the arming event (SOURCE) for the instrument
