DESCRIPTION
The Trigger On (
@
) command will start or stop the acquisition accordingly when the
start
or
stop
arguments
of the Set Trigger Configuration (
T
) command is set to
1
(trigger on). The
T
command is used as a trigger source
and follows the same rules as other trigger sources as defined by the
T
command.
The
@
command is valid only when an acquisition is configured such that either the Trigger (trigger start event)
and/or Stop (trigger stop event) is defined as the Trigger On (
@
) command. Otherwise, if this command is issued
such that either the Trigger and/or Stop are not defined as the Trigger On (
@
) command, an error condition will
occur.
EXAMPLE
PRINT#1, “OUTPUT07;T1,1,0,0X”
‘ Configure an acquisition with both Trigger and Stop
being assigned the Trigger On (
@
) command
PRINT#1, “OUTPUT07; @X”
‘ Start the acquisition
SLEEP 10
‘ Wait 10 seconds to collect data
PRINT#1, “OUTPUT07; @X”
‘ Stop the acquisition
