ABORt
The ABORt command removes the HP E1429 from the wait-for-trigger state and
places it in the idle state, irrespective of any other settings. Measurement is halted
and can only be restarted by another INITiate[:IMMediate] command.
There is no query form of this command.
Comments • ABORt does not affect any other settings of the HP E1429.
• Both measurement channels are aborted with this command.
• Local bus and VME bus data transfers are aborted.
• The Pending Operation Flag (as defined by IEEE-488.2) will be set false as a
consequence of entering the idle state. *OPC? will therefore return 1 after an
ABORt command.
• Executable when initiated: Yes
• Coupled Command: No
• If an ABORt or power failure occurs during a sequence of measurements, the
digitizer will return (FETCh?) or recover (FETCh:RECover?) between one and
TRIGger:STARt:COUNt number of readings. Because the digitizer processor
does not know when the arm occurs, the readings returned may be pre-arm only,
post-arm only, or a combination of both. If less than TRIGger:STARt:COUNt
readings have been taken, then that number of readings are returned. If at least
TRIGger:STARt:COUNt readings have been taken, then
TRIGger:STARt:COUNt readings are returned.
• Related Commands: INITiate, *OPC, *OPC?
• *RST Condition: After a *RST, the HP E1429 is placed in the trigger idle state,
as if ABORt had been executed.
