TRIGger:COUNt
Syntax TRIGger:COUNt {<count>|MIN|MAX|INFinity}
TRIGger:COUNt?
Description

Parameters
Name Type Range Default
<count>
Integer
Any integer from 1 to 50000 (MAX) or INFinity.

Explanation  When the number of scans is set to a specific value, the instrument stops
automatically when the specified number of scans are finished.
 After setting the number of scans, in the instrument can only receive trigger signals
(refer to the
TRIGger:SOURce command) effectively when it is in the "wait-for-trigger"
state (send the INITiate
or READ? command).
In the BUS (manual) trigger mode, <count> determines the number of the
*TRG
commands that can be effectively accepted by the instrument. Once the instrument is
in the “Idle” state, sending the
*TRG command cannot trigger a scan.
In the EXTernal (external) trigger mode, <count> determines the number of external
signals that can be effectively accepted by the instrument. Once the instrument is in
the “Idle” state, inputting a valid trigger signal cannot trigger a scan.
 The
CONFigure Command Subsystem and MEASure Command Subsystem commands
automatically set the number of scans to 1.
 You can set the number of scans to INFinity, the instrument scans continuously. At this
point, you can send the
ABORt command to stop the scan.
 The instrument sets the number of scans to 1 after a Factory Reset (send the
*RST
command). An Instrument Preset (send the
SYSTem:PRESet command) or Card Reset
(send the SYSTem:CPON command) does not affect the current setting.
Return
Format
The query returns the number of scans in scientific notation. When the number of scans is
set to INFinity, the query returns 9.90000200E+37.
Example CONF:VOLT:DC 20,0.001,(@103:108)
ROUT:SCAN (@103:108)
TRIG:COUN 6
INIT
TRIG:COUN?
The query returns +6.000000000E+00.
