The CSAT3 will ignore this command if a datalogger (SDM) is triggering
the anemometer.

After the PC takes over as the trigger source it must continue to trigger the
CSAT3 at the rate specified in the Execution Parameter (An).
If the
CSAT3 does not receive a trigger for three seconds it will enter the Lost
Trigger state.
The Execution Parameter (An) will have to be issued in
order for the anemometer to exit the Lost Trigger state.
