*RST: Continuous
Key access: Sweep > Sweep
Single/Cont
Initiate a Single Sweep
:INITiate[:IMMediate]
This command initiates a sweep if not in a measurement. If in a
measurement, it triggers the measurement.
Remarks: See also the *TRG command
Use the :TRIGer[:SEQuence]:SOURce EXTernal command
to select the external trigger.
The analyzer must be in the single measurement mode. If
:INITiate:CONTinuous is ON, the command is ignored.
If the analyzer is in signal identification mode, two sweeps are required,
as this mode relies on the acquisition of data from two successive
sweeps. Therefore, if the analyzer is in single sweep mode, two sweep
triggers are needed to generate the sweep pair. In image suppress mode,
synchronization is ensured by first turning off signal identification,
initiating a single sweep, then turning on signal identification followed
by two single sweeps.
