Set and Query Trigger Source
Syntax
Command
:TRIGger:SOURce
<BUS/ EXTernal>
Query
:TRIGger:SOURce?
Response
<BUS/ EXT>
<BUS>
=
Communication triggering
<EXTernal>
= External triggering
Description
Command
Sets the trigger source.
When the command is accepted, the measured value is cleared and the
instrument enters the non-measurement state.
Query
Queries the currently set trigger source.
Example
:TRIG:SOUR BUS
:TRIG:SOUR?
BUS
Note
• When
EXT
is set, executing
*TRG
may cause an execution error.
• When
BUS
is set, the input to the TRG terminal is ignored.
Set and Query Trigger Delay
Syntax
Command
:TRIGger:DELay
<Delay time(NRf)>
Query
:TRIGger:DELay?
Response
<Delay time(NR2)>
<Delay time>
= 0.0 to 1.0000000 [sec]
Description
Command
Sets the trigger delay.
When the command is accepted, the measured value is cleared and the
instrument enters the non-measurement state.
Query
Queries the currently set trigger delay.
Example
:TRIG:DEL 1
:TRIG:DEL?
1.0000000
Note
• The resolution of the delay time is 100 nsec.
• The modulation frequency measurement is not supported.
Set and Query Trigger Detection Edge
Syntax
Command
:TRIGger:EDGE
<RISE/FALL>
Query
:TRIGger:EDGE?
Response
<RISE/FALL>
<RISE>
=
Starts the measurement on the rising edge of the input signal to the TRG
terminal.
<FALL>
= Starts the measurement on the falling edge of the input signal to the TRG
terminal.
Description
Command
Sets the trigger detection edge.
When the command is accepted, the measured value is cleared and the
instrument enters the non-measurement state.
Query
Queries the currently set trigger detection edge.
Example
:TRIG:EDGE RISE
:TRIG:EDGE?
RISE
