BNC 1105 Universal Counter - Manual (Page 126)

126 126 126 126
The beginning of the first measurement caused by setting :INIT:CONT ON
sets the pending Operation Flag to true. The pending Operation Flag is set to
false by aborting of a measurement, or by the completion of the last
measurement after :INIT:CONT is set to OFF.
When the measurements are being made continuously, :ABORt command
will terminate the measurement in progress, but does not change the value
of :INIT:CONT. If :INIT:CONT is set to ON prior to :ABORt, it remains ON and
a new measurement is initiated.
When a single measurement is in progress (:INIT:CONT is OFF):
o
Error -213 (Init ignored) is generated and the state if INIT:CONT is
unaffected by :INIT:CONT ON.
o
Error -210 (Trigger error) is generated by :INIT:CONT OFF.
The :INIT:CONT will be set to ON after the counter has been turned off, but
set to OFF after *RST command.
:INITiate[:IMMediate]
Instructs the counter to initiate a single measurement or a specified number of
measurements.
The counter will initiate one single measurement when
:TRIG:COUN:AUTO is OFF
or
:CALC3:AVER[:STAT] is OFF
or
[:SENS]:FUNC[:ON] is Totalize
or
[:SENS]:FUNC[:ON] is any Voltage Peaks.
The counter will initiate a complete block of measurements when
:TRIG:COUN:AUTO is ON
And
:CALC3:AVER[:STAT] is ON
And
[:SENS]:FUNC[:ON] is not Totalize or Voltage Peaks.
See :TRIG:COUN:AUTO for specifics.
Notes
When :TRIG:COUN:AUTO and :CALC3:AVER[:STAT] are both ON, the
counter clears the statistics results and the current count when it
