ABORt
The ABORt command subsystem removes the multimeter from the wait-for-trigger
state and places it in the idle state.
ABORt can only
be used with the following trigger sources:
TRIGger:SOURce BUS
and
TRIGger:SOURce HOLD.
Subsystem Syntax ABORt
Comments •
ABORt
does not affect any other settings of the trigger system. When the INITiate
command is sent, the trigger system will respond as it did before ABORt was
executed.
• When TRIGger:SOURce BUS is selected, ABORt returns the multimeter to the
idle state. When a Group Execute Trigger (
GET) bus command or *TRG common
command is executed, the
"Trigger ignored" error is generated.
• When TRIGger:SOURce HOLD is selected, ABORt returns the multimeter to the
idle state. All subsequent single triggers sent using
TRIGger:IMMediate are
ignored and the "Trigger ignored" error is generated.
• When the trigger system is initiated from the HP-IB interface, execute the HP-IB
CLEAR command or press the HP E1301A front panel “Clear Instr” or
“Reset Instr” key to return to the idle state.
• When the trigger system is initiated from the HP E1301A front panel, execute
*RST over the HP-IB interface or press the HP E1301A front panel “Clear Instr”
or “Reset Instr” key to return to the idle state.
• Related Commands: INITiate, TRIGger:SOURce
•
*RST Condition: After a *RST, the multimeter acts as though an ABORt has
occurred.
