does anyone know what the Trigger function do?

Hi all,

I recently have to build a device driver for positioning controller. Can
someone tell me under what circumstances the function Trigger under GPIB
488.2 becomes useful? What to expect after this function is executed? Help
doesn't explain much about this function.

Thanks alot.

Nam.

Hi,
Trigger line allows programmer to start a process on one or several instruments at a given time. For example, an ADC may often be programmed for triggered single-shot acquisition. Trigger may be critical for synchronizing purposes.
