## Command Syntax

    :ACQuire:RUN

## Description

Starts continuous data acquisition on all selected channels. While at least one input channel is turned on, Infiniium 2026, armed and ready to respond to a trigger, starts acquiring data on the next trigger event. Data is continuously acquired on successive trigger events (one sample point per trigger). Run is the default acquisition mode. This command is equivalent to clicking the Run button. If you want to run a number of waveforms, patterns, or samples, use an acquisition limit test (`:LTESt:ACQuire:STATe`) to set up the conditions and then use the `:ACQuire:RUN` command to start the test. This is shown in the following example.

When used in an acquisition limit test, always follow the this command with an `*OPC (Operation Complete)` query to pause program execution.
