Comments • You can substitute decimal values for the OFF ("0") and ON ("1") parameters.
• When TRIG:DEL:AUTO is ON, the trigger delay is 0 seconds for DC voltage and
resistance measurements or 0.5 seconds for AC voltage measurements.
• For the stand-alone multimeter, the trigger delay is inserted between the trigger
and the first measurement of a burst. For the scanning multimeter, the trigger
delay is inserted between the trigger and the first channel in each scan.
• If a trigger delay is specified using the TRIGger:DELay <period> command,
TRIG:DEL:AUTO is turned OFF.
• You can set a delay between measurements in a burst using the SAMPle:TIMer
command.
• *RST Condition: TRIG:DEL:AUTO ON
