TRIGger<Measurement>:MODE
<mode>
The trigger mode determines the behavior of the instrument if no trigger occurs, and
also the number of acquired waveforms when a trigger occurs.
Suffix:
<Measurement>
.
1...100
Parameters:
<mode>
NORMal | FREerun | SINGle
NORMal
Continuous triggering with regular trigger events.
FREerun
This setting automatically starts a measurement if no trigger
event has occurred after 300 ms.
SINGle
This setting disables continuous triggering so that only one trig-
ger event at a time is executed.
*RST:
NORMal
Manual operation:

TRIGger<Measurement>:SOURce
<mode>
This command sets the trigger source for all the following measurements.

Parameters:
<mode>
INTernal | EXTernal
INTernal
The internal timer is used as a trigger source. As a result, the
measurement is performed in the freerun mode. This implies
that the sensor carries out measurements permanently but that
they are not related to the test signal.
EXTernal
This mode allows to trigger measurements via the two remote
control interfaces (commands
:TRIG
and
*TRG
) or the AUX TTL
connector at the rear panel of the device. The event which
arrives first is used for triggering. The measurement is triggered
immediately after the trigger event arrives. The measured quan-
tity may change before triggering starts but should then remain
unchanged until the end of the measurement.
