Execute Trigger

This command conforms to the IEEE 488.2 standard requirements.
*TRG
Equivalent to a Group Execute Trigger (GET). Causes a single reading to be taken.

Execute Trigger and Take a Reading

X?
Equivalent to performing an Execute Trigger (
X? is intended for high speed use.

Settling Delay

Nrf
A numeric value for the required settle delay. The minimum period allowed is 0, and the
maximum is 65,000 seconds.
Examples:
The programmed delay is active with TRG_SRCE EXT selected, although delays may be
programmed whilst unit is in Remote with default (internal) triggers selected. They will
then become active upon the selection of the external trigger.
Execution Errors:
Execution errors are generated if an attempt is made to program the delays when the
instrument is not in remote control.
An execution error is generated if the selected value of Nrf exceeds the limiting value.
