:ACQuire:COMPlete
(see page 530)
Command Syntax
:ACQuire:COMPlete <complete>
<complete> ::= 100; an integer in NR1 format
The :ACQuire:COMPlete command affects the operation of the :DIGitize
command. It specifies the minimum completion criteria for an acquisition.
The parameter determines the percentage of the time buckets that must be
"full" before an acquisition is considered complete. If :ACQuire:TYPE is
NORMal, it needs only one sample per time bucket for that time bucket to
be considered full.
The only legal value for the :COMPlete command is 100. All time buckets
must contain data for the acquisition to be considered complete.

the currently selected mode.
Return Format
