scan.trigger.sequence.set()
Usage
scan.trigger.sequence.set()
Remarks
This function will set the sequence event detector to the detected state.
Example
To set the sequence event detector to the detected state:
scan.trigger.sequence.set()
scan.trigger.sequence.stimulus
Attribute
Sequence event detector trigger stimulus selection.
Usage
To read the trigger stimulus:
eventid = scan.trigger.sequence.stimulus
eventid: Present trigger source being used for the sample event.
To write the trigger stimulus:
scan.trigger.sequence.stimulus = eventid
eventid: Trigger source to set for the sample event
Remarks
This attribute selects which event(s) will cause the sequence event detector to enter
the detected state. Set this attribute to 0 to bypass waiting for an event.
eventid may be one of the following (existing trigger event IDs):
digio.trigger[N].EVENT_ID: An edge (either rising, falling, or either based on the
configuration of the line) on the digital input line.
display.trigger.EVENT_ID: The trigger key on the front panel is pressed.
trigger.EVENT_ID: A *trg message on the active command interface. If GPIB is the
active command interface, a GET message will also generate this event.
trigger.blender[N].EVENT_ID: A combination of events has occurred.
trigger.timer[N].EVENT_ID: A delay expired.
tsplink.trigger[N].EVENT_ID: An edge (either rising, falling, or either based on the
configuration of the line) on the tsplink trigger line.
lan.trigger[N].EVENT_ID
scan.trigger.EVENT_SCAN_READY: Scan Ready Event.
scan.trigger.EVENT_SCAN_START: Scan Start Event
scan.trigger.EVENT_CHANNEL_READY: Channel Ready Event
scan.trigger.EVENT_MEASURE_COMP: Measure Complete Event
scan.trigger.EVENT_SEQUENCE_COMP: Sequence Complete Event
scan.trigger.EVENT_SCAN_COMP: Scan Complete Event
scan.trigger.EVENT_IDLE: Idle Event
Use this to pace each one of the measure count readings with an event. If you don‟t
want to pace the reading, then set this stimulus to 0.
NOTE Use the ICL define to set the stimulus value rather than the define value.
Doing this will make the code compatible for future upgrades because they
may need to change when enhancements are added to the instrument.
