Usage
bypass = scan.bypass
scan.bypass = bypass
bypass
Enable or disable the bypass:
▪ scan.OFF or 0: Disabled
▪ scan.ON or 1: Enabled
Details
When bypass is set to on and the scan.trigger.arm.stimulus is set to a non-zero value, the
first channel of the scan closes (the scan.trigger.channel.stimulus setting is ignored).
For other channels (other than the first), the channel stimulus must be satisfied before the channel
action takes place.
When bypass is set to off, every channel (including the first) must satisfy the
scan.trigger.channel.stimulus setting before the channel action occurs for that step.
Example
scan.bypass = scan.OFF
print(scan.bypass)
Disables the bypass option for scanning and
displays the present bypass state.
Output:
0.000000000e+000
