"Norm"
The instrument acquires a normal waveform only, if a trigger occurs,

no waveform was captured before, nothing is displayed.

"Timeout"
Triggers on signal level timeout.
See
Chapter 6.11, "Timeout trigger"
"Line"
The line trigger uses the waveform of the power supply's alternating
line voltage (typically 50 Hz or 60 Hz AC) as the trigger signal source.
Use this trigger to detect issues related to the frequency of the power
grid.
The line trigger does not have any settings.
"Serial
Bus"
Triggers on a serial bus. Requires that at least one protocol option
R&S
RTM-K1, K2, or K3 is installed, a serial bus is configured, and a
decoded signal is available.
