Description
This command sets the delay between the trigger signal and the first
measurement. This may be useful in applications where you want to allow
the input to settle before taking a reading or for pacing a burst of readings.
The programmed trigger delay overrides the default trigger delay that the
instrument automatically adds.
It is recommended that all triggered measurements be made using
an appropriate fixed manual range. That is, turn autorange off
(SENSe:<function>:RANGe:AUTO OFF), or set a fixed range using
the SENSe:<function>:RANGe, CONFigure, or MEASure command.
For ac measurements (voltage or current), there is a relationship
between the bandwidth setting ([SENSe:]VOLTage:AC:BANDwidth
or [SENSe:]CURRent:AC:BANDwidth) and the default trigger delay
setting. This delay ensures that there is sufficient settling time for
the ac measurement. See Automatic Trigger Delays for further
information.
