Trigger Commands
BWLimit
BWLimit
Command
:TRIGger:BWLimit {DIVided | HIGH | LOW}
This command controls an internal lowpass filter and a divider in the 86100A trigger. The
bandwidth of the trigger is limited to approximately 100 MHz. DIVided mode is unaffected by
the level, hysteresis, and slope settings. The DIVided parameter is only valid if the mainframe
has option 001.
Query
:TRIGger:BWLimit?
The query returns the current setting for the specified trigger input.
Returned Format
[:TRIGger:BWLimit] {HIGH | LOW| DIV}<NL>
Example
10 OUTPUT 707;”:TRIGGER:BWLIMIT LOW”
DCDRatio
Command
:TRIGger:DCDRatio <data_to_clock_divide_ratio>
This command is used to set the data-to-clock divide ratio used by pattern lock trigger mode.
<data_to_clock_divide_ratio> must be one of the following integers: 1, 2, 4, 5, 8, 10, 15, 16,
20, 25, 30, 32, 35, 40, 45, 50, 64, 66, 100, 128.
Restrictions
Software revision A.04.00 and above (86100C instruments)
Query
:TRIGger:DCDRatio?
This query returns the current setting of data-to-clock divide ratio.
Returned Format
[:TRIGger:DCDRatio] <data_to_clock_divide_ratio><NL>
Example
10 OUTPUT 707; "
:
TRIGger:DCDRatio 16"
DCDRatio:AUTodetect
Command
:
TRIGger:DCDRatio:AUTodetect {{ON | 1} | {OFF | 0}}
This command enables or disables automatic detection of the data-to-clock divide ratio.
When disabled, use the
:TRIGger:DCDRatio
command to set the data-to-clock divide ratio. When
enabled, use the
:TRIGger:PLOCk:AUTodetect
command to initiate automatic detection.
Restrictions
Software revision A.04.00 and above (86100C instruments)
Query
:TRIGger:DCDRatio:AUTodetect?
Returned Format
[
:TRIGger:DCDRatio:AUTodetect] {1 | 0}<NL>
Example
10 OUTPUT 707; ":TRIGger:DCDRatio:AUTodetect ON"
GATed
Command
:TRIGger:GATed {ON | 1 | OFF | 0}
This command enables or disables the ability of the instrument to respond to trigger inputs.
Query
:TRIGger:GATed?
The query returns the current gated setting.
Returned Format
[:TRIGger:GATed] {1 | 0}<NL>
