18-122 SCPI Command Reference 2400 Series SourceMeter
®
User’s Manual
For example, assume the arm count is set to 2 and the trigger counter is
set to 10, the SourceMeter is configured to perform 10 source-measure
operations twice for a total of 20 source-measure operations.
The product of the arm count and trigger count cannot exceed 2500. If,
for example, the arm count is 2, then the maximum trigger count is
1250.
NOTE INFinite can be used only with ARM:COUNt, and FETCh?, READ?, MEAS?,
CALC1:DATA?, or CALC2:DATA? cannot be used with infinite arm count. Only
INIT will start measurements, and only interlock, over-temperature, SDC, DCL,
or ABORt should be used to stop the sweep.
ARM:COUNt INFinite can be used for repetitive source waveforms or
for long tests where only the last reading is important. For example, the
limits could be used to drive the interlock to abort a test when some con-
dition is met. DATA? would then give the answer to the test.
DELay <n>
:TRIGger[:SEQuence[1]]:DELay <n> Set trigger layer delay
Parameters <n> = 0 to 999.9999 Specify delay in seconds
DEFault 0 second delay
MINimum 0 second delay
MAXimum 999.9999 second delay
Query :DELay? Query the programmed delay
:DELay? DEFault Query the *RST default delay
:DELay? MINimum Query the lowest allowable delay
:DELay? MAXimum Query the largest allowable delay
Description The delay is used to delay operation in the trigger layer. After the pro-
grammed trigger event occurs, the instrument waits until the delay
period expires before performing the Device Action.
NOTE For the Model 2430 Pulse Mode, trigger delay is not used. The Pulse Mode uses
pulse width and pulse delay for pulse timing. See Section 5 for details on Pulse
Mode.
