Remote Acquisition Synchronization

When remotely controlling an oscilloscope with SCPI commands, it is often

necessary to know when the oscilloscope has finished the previous

operation and is ready for the next SCPI command. The most common

example is when an acquisition is started using the :DIG, :RUN, or

:SINGLE commands. Before a measurement result can be queried, the

acquisition must complete. Too often, fixed delays are used to accomplish

this wait, but fixed delays often use excessive time or the time may not be

long enough. A better solution is to use synchronous commands and status

to know when the oscilloscope is ready for the next request.
