ABORt
ABORt
interrupts the current measurement and sets the power sensor module to the
IDLE
state
(normal case). However, if the power sensor module is in the continuous measurement mode (setting
INITiate:CONTinuous ON
), the
IDLE
state is immediately exited and the power sensor module enters
the
WAIT_FOR_TRIGGER
state.
INITiate:CONTinuous[?] OFF | ON
INITiate:CONTinuous ON
activates the continuous measurement mode. In this mode, a new
measurement is automatically started when a measurement is terminated. The power sensor module
first enters the
WAIT_FOR_TRIGGER
state and begins with the measurement as soon as the trigger
condition is fulfilled. Once the measurement is completed, the sensor again enters the
WAIT_FOR_TRIGGER
state. The power sensor module will measure continuously assuming
continuous trigger events.
In contrast, each measurement cycle must be explicitly started with the
INITiate:IMMediate
command
after the
INITiate:CONTinuous OFF
command has been sent. After triggering and completion of the
measurement, the power sensor module enters the
IDLE
status and remains in this status until a new
measurement is started with the
INITiate:IMMediate
command.
