The Meter can be put into a wait-for-trigger state remotely by sending it a MEASure?,
READ?, or INITiate command. Once received by the Meter, it takes approximately 20
ms to setup the Meter and put it in to the wait-for-trigger state. Any triggers received
during this set-up time are ignored.
Using the Triggering Commands
INITiate
Description Sets the Meter to the wait-for-trigger state in which the next trigger from
the selected source triggers a measurement cycle. Up to 5,000
measurements are placed into the Meter's internal memory, where they can
be retrieved with the FETCh? command.
Examples INIT
READ?
Description Sets the Meter in to the wait-for-trigger state where the next trigger from
the selected source triggers a measurement cycle. Measurements are sent
directly to the output buffer.
