What can you do to
abort a measurement?
What are other trigger
commands?
When you transfer measurement data to the controller, you must use either the
the
parameter
commands, see the \To Trigger a Measurement From the Controller" example.

To Trigger a Measurement From the Controller

Two methods of triggering a measurement from the controller are shown in Figure 2-3 and
Figure 2-4.

Set Trigger Source

Set the trigger source to internal.

Trigger a Measurement

The analyzer changes to the \Waiting for Trigger" state. In this program, the internal source
is selected and the analyzer immediately starts a measurement. After the measurement, the
analyzer goes to the \Idle" state.
How can you perform
averaging?
Send the command:
The measurement sweep is aborted.
Instead of , you can use,
command to synchronize the controller and the analyzer. To use these
When you set the averaging on, you must also set the number
of measurements to the same value as the averaging factor.
For example, if the averaging factor is 10, replace line 60 as
follows:
for single measurement
parameter for number of group
measurements
