COMMAND SYNTAX
WAIT
Note : This command have two ways to use. One
sets the limited time, another one doesn’t set the
limited time.
EXAMPLE
If we move the trigger level of the source to the
position where the trace isn’t triggered. Then we
send an ARM command to set the trigger mode
to single. Finally we send the WAIT command.
The instrument will be waiting for triggering
until the time over (if we set it) or time out.
If we move the trigger level of the source, and
the instrument is triggered. Then we send an
ARM command to set the trigger mode to single.
Finally we send the WAIT command. The
WAIT command will be finished if we send a
FRTR for triggering.
