Usage

Security

Open.

Description

If the instrument is logging, this command will terminate the current deployment. If the instrument was not logging when the command is issued, its status does not change.
This command reports:

status, the status of the logger is always reported when the command is complete (see deployment command).

If the disable command is sent while a measurement is in progress, the measurement will be completed before logging is stopped. Consequently, depending on the channels installed in the logger and the sampling mode, the logger's response to the command may be delayed. If the logger is sampling in any averaging or burst recording mode, the burst currently in progress will be interrupted and abandoned.

If the logger is recording data to memory, a 'stop event' will be appended to the data after the last sample stored.

Examples

CODE

>> deployment status
<< deployment status = logging
>> disable
<< disable status = stopped

The instrument was logging, and has now been stopped.

CODE

>> deployment status
<< deployment status = disabled
>> disable
<< disable status = disabled

The instrument had previously been stopped and its data memory erased; its status has not changed.
