Trigger event IDs
Trigger event ID
Description
digio.trigger[N].EVENT_ID
An edge (either rising, falling, or either based on the
configuration of the line) on the digital input line
display.trigger.EVENT_ID
The trigger key on the front panel is pressed
trigger.EVENT_ID
A *trg message on the active command interface. If GPIB is
the active command interface, a GET message also
generates this event
trigger.blender[N].EVENT_ID
A combination of events has occurred
trigger.timer[N].EVENT_ID
A delay expired
tsplink.trigger[N].EVENT_ID
An edge (either rising, falling, or either based on the
configuration of the line) on the TSP-Link trigger line
lan.trigger[N].EVENT_ID
A LAN trigger event has occurred
scan.trigger.EVENT_SCAN_READY
Scan Ready Event
scan.trigger.EVENT_SCAN_START
Scan Start Event
scan.trigger.EVENT_CHANNEL_READY
Channel Ready Event
scan.trigger.EVENT_SCAN_COMP
Scan Complete Event
scan.trigger.EVENT_IDLE
Idle Event
NOTE
Use the EVENT_ID constant to set the stimulus attribute rather than using a numerical value for the
EVENT_ID constant. Doing this will make your code compatible for possible upgrades if the
EVENT_ID changes in future enhancements to the instrument.
Setting this attribute to zero disables automatic trigger generation.
If any events are detected prior to calling
lan.trigger[N].connect()
, the event is ignored and the action
overrun is set.
Example
lan.trigger[5].stimulus =
trigger.timer[1].EVENT_ID
Use timer 1 trigger event as the
source for LAN packet 5 trigger
stimulus.
