Comments
Continuous Scanning Operation: Continuous scanning is enabled
with the 
INITiate:CONTinuous ON
 or 
INITiate:CONTinuous 1
command.  Sending the 
INITiate[:IMMediate]
 command closes the
first channel in the channel list.  Each trigger from a trigger source
selected by the 
TRIGger:SOURce
 command advances the scan
through the channel list.  A trigger at the end of the channel list
closes the first channel in the list and the scan cycle repeats.
Non-Continuous Scanning Operation: Non-continuous scanning is
enabled with the 
INITiate:CONTinuous OFF
 or 
INITiate:CONTinuous
0
 command.  Sending the 
INITiate[:IMMediate]
 command closes the
first channel in the channel list.  Each trigger from a trigger source
selected by the 
TRIGger:SOURce
 command advances the scan
through the channel list.  At the end of the scanning cycle, the last
channel in the channel list is closed.
Stopping Continuous Scans: See the 
ABORt
 command.

Example
Enabling Continuous Scans
This example enables continuous scanning of channels 00 through 02 of a
single-module switchbox.  Since 
TRIGger:SOURce IMMediate
 (default) is
set, use an interface clear command (such as CLEAR) to stop the scan.
INIT:CONT ON
Enables continuous scanning.
SCAN   (@100:102)
Defines channel list.
INIT
Start scan cycle, close channel 00.
