:TRIGger:LOAD "DurationLoop"
This command loads a predefined trigger model configuration that makes continuous measurements for a
specified amount of time.
Type
Command only
Usage
:TRIGger:LOAD "DurationLoop", <duration>
:TRIGger:LOAD "DurationLoop", <duration>, <delay>
:TRIGger:LOAD "DurationLoop", <duration>, <delay>, "<readingBuffer>"
<duration>
<delay>
<readingBuffer>
Details
When you load this predefined trigger model, you can specify amount of time to make a
measurement and the length of the delay before the measurement.
After selecting a trigger model template, you can view the trigger model blocks in a graphical format
by pressing the front-panel MENU key and under Trigger, selecting Configure. You can also add or
delete blocks and change trigger model settings from this screen. You can use the
TRIGger:BLOCk:LIST? command to view the trigger model blocks in a list format.
This command replaces the TRIGger:LOAD:LOOP:DURation command, which is deprecated.
Example
*RST
SOUR:FUNC VOLT
