Example
Chapter 3
The command subsystem places the multimeter in the wait-for-trigger state.

INITiate

This command is most commonly used with
"Triggering the Multimeter" beginning on page
HP E1312A and HP E1412 trigger system which discusses the wait-for-trigger state.
INITiate
[:IMMediate]
places the multimeter in the wait-for-trigger state. When a
INITiate[:IMMediate]
trigger is received, readings are placed in multimeter internal memory.

After the trigger system is initiated using
subsystem to control the behavior of the trigger system.

To transfer readings from memory to the output buffer, use the
command.

Function: DC voltage.
Trigger source is the external BNC on the
multimeter.
Place multimeter in wait-for-trigger state;
store readings in internal memory when ext
trigger is received.
Place readings in output buffer.
You must re-initiate the wait-for-trigger state
after each trigger cycle.
