Agilent InfiniiVision 6000 Series Oscilloscopes Programmer's Guide 821
All Oscilloscope Commands Are Sequential
IEEE 488.2 makes the distinction between sequential and overlapped
commands:
• Sequential commands finish their task before the execution of the next
command starts.
• Overlapped commands run concurrently. Commands following an
overlapped command may be started before the overlapped command is
completed.
All of the oscilloscope commands are sequential.
