Trigger.timer[N].Wait() - Keithley 708B Reference Manual

Models 707B and 708B Switching Matrix Reference Manual
Set this attribute to the eventID of any trigger event to wait for that event.
Use zero to disable event processing.
Use trigger event ID rather than the numeric value to set the stimulus value. This will help make the
code compatible with future upgrades.

Details
If one or more trigger events were detected since the last time trigger.timer[N].wait() or

After waiting for a trigger with this function, the event detector is automatically reset and rearmed. This is true
regardless of the number of events detected.
