Appendix C: Common Commands Series 2600 System SourceMeter® Instruments Reference Manual
*RST — reset
Return SourceMeter to defaults
When the *RST command is sent, the SourceMeter returns to the default conditions (see Table 1-
1-5 on page 1-23).
*TRG — trigger
Send remote trigger to SourceMeter
Use the *TRG command to issue a GPIB or RS-232 trigger to the SourceMeter. It has the same
effect as a group execute trigger (GET).
*TST? — self-test query
Return 0
This command always places a 0 in the Output Queue. It is included for common command
compatibility, but the Series 2600 does not actually perform a self-test.
*WAI — wait-to-continue
Wait until commands are completed
Two types of device commands exist:
• Sequential command — A command whose operations are allowed to finish before the next
command is executed.
• Overlapped command — A command that allows the execution of subsequent commands
while device operations of the overlapped command are still in progress.
The *WAI command is used to suspend the execution of subsequent commands until the device
operations of all previous overlapped commands are finished. The *WAI command is not needed
for sequential commands.
