ABORt
This command aborts a measurement and resets the trigger system.
To prevent overlapping execution of the subsequent command before the measure-
ment has been aborted successfully, use the *OPC? or *WAI command after ABORt
and before the next command.
Note on blocked remote control programs
If a sequential command cannot be completed, for example because a triggered sweep
never receives a trigger, the remote control program will never finish and the remote
channel to the R&S FPC is blocked for further commands. In this case, you must inter-
rupt processing on the remote channel first in order to abort the measurement.
To do so, send a "Device Clear" command from the control instrument to the R&S FPC
on a parallel channel to clear all currently active remote channels. Depending on the
used interface and protocol, send the following commands
●
Visa:viClear()
Now you can send the ABORt command on the remote channel performing the mea-
surement.
Example:
//Abort measurement and start a new one once abort is com-
plete
ABOR;*WAI
INIT:IMM
Usage: Event
[SENSe:]SWEep:TIME <SweepTime>
This command defines the sweep time.
