[:STARt]:LAYer2[:IMMediate]
ARM[:STARt]:LAYer2[:IMMediate] immediately arms the waveform regardless of
the selected arm source. The trigger system must be initiated and the start trigger
sequence must be in the wait-for-arm state. The selected start arm source remains
unchanged.
Comments • Executing this command with the start trigger sequence not in the wait-for-arm
state generates Error -212,"Arm ignored".
• Executable when Initiated: Yes
• Coupling Group: None
• Related Commands: INITiate[:IMMediate]
• *RST Condition: None
Example Starting a Waveform
ARM:LAY2:SOUR HOLD Sets manual arm source.
INIT Initiates trigger system.
ARM:LAY2 Starts waveform.
[:STARt]:LAYer2:SLOPe
ARM[:STARt]:LAYer2:SLOPe <edge> selects the edge (rising or falling) on the
Agilent E1445A’s front panel “Start Arm In” BNC which starts waveform
generation. This edge is significant only with
ARM[:STARt]:LAYer2:SOURce set to
EXTernal. The programmed value is retained but not used when other sources are
selected.
