Triggering the Multimeter
The U3606A Multimeter|DC Power Supply triggering system allows you to
generate triggers either automatically or manually via the Trig key on the
front panel or the *TRG command via the remote interface.
From the front panel (local interface), the multimeter always auto- triggers
by default. Auto triggering takes continuous readings at the fastest rate
possible for the selected measurement configuration.
You can enable the single trigger function to manually trigger the U3606A
readings. See “Front panel triggering” on page 70 for more information on
the single trigger function.
From the remote interface, triggering the U3606A is a three- step process:
1 Configure the U3606A for measurement by selecting the function, range,
resolution, and so on.
2 Specify the U3606A trigger source. The U3606A Multimeter|DC Power
Supply will accept a software (bus) command or an immediate
(continuous) trigger.
3 Ensure that the U3606A is ready to accept a trigger from the specified
source (called the “wait- for- trigger” state).
See “Remote interface triggering” on page 71 for more information on the
software (bus) or immediate triggering source.
