Measurement state (sequence operation state)
In Measurement state, the trigger system waits until the measurement point delay time (set
with the :TRIG:SEQ2:DEL command on page 309) elapses and then starts measurement
for each measurement point.
When the instrument has finished measuring the DUT at the single specified point (for
single-point measurement) or at all the points defined in the active table (for list
measurement), the trigger system switches to either Idle or Waiting for Trigger state
depending on whether continuous activation is off or on (set with the :INIT:CONT
command on page 287):
If continuous activation is off:
Switches to Idle state (arrow c in Figure 5-1).
If continuous activation is on:
Switches to Waiting for Trigger state (arrow d in Figure 5-1).
