Trigger key
If the key on the front panel is pressed when this instrument is in the local state and HOLD
ON, the measurement starts. The trigger key can be used regardless of the trigger source selection.
Trigger event buffer
If triggers are input while this instrument is in the measurement state, one trigger event is buffered.
In this case, the operation is the same as when the measurement is complete at the same time a trigger
is generated.
