interval
Delay interval in seconds (8 µs to 100 ks)
N
Trigger timer number (1 to 4)
Details
Once the timer is enabled, each time the timer is triggered, it uses this delay period.
Assigning a value to this attribute is equivalent to:
trigger.timer[N].delaylist = {interval}
This creates a delay list of one value.
Reading this attribute returns the delay interval that will be used the next time the timer is triggered.
If you use the trigger timer with a trigger model, make sure the trigger timer delay is set so that the
readings are paced correctly.
Example
trigger.timer[1].delay = 50e-6
Set the trigger timer 1 to delay for
50 µs.
