:OUTPut:AOFF
Description
Selects, whether the power source should be automatically turned off after a single sweep cycle.
This is useful, if only a single sweep is performed. The DUT does not heat up unnecessarily.
When performing a continuous measurement, it is considered to deactivate the automatic output power off feature, because otherwise the source is powered down between each sweep run.

Sample usage
Enable and start a continuous measurement and ensure that the power source remains active between each sweep run.
var visaSession = new TcpipSocket(VISA_RESOURCENAME);
visaSession.RawIO.Write(":TRIG:SOUR INT\n");
// ensure that the power source stays activate between each sweep run
visaSession.RawIO.Write(":OUTP:AOFF OFF\n");
visaSession.RawIO.Write(":INIT:CONT ON\n");
Input:
visaSession.write(':TRIG:SOUR INT\n')
# ensure that the power source stays activate between each sweep run
visaSession.write(':OUTP:AOFF OFF\n')
visaSession.write(':INIT:CONT ON\n')
