Triggering - The TRIGger Subsystem Measurement Operations & Settings
Agilent 8163A/B, 8164A/B & 8166A/B Mainframes, Fifth Edition 177
command:
:TRIGger[n][:CHANnel[m]]:OUTPut:REARm
syntax: :TRIGger[n][:CHANnel[m]]:OUTPut:REARm<wsp>OFF|ON|0|1
description: Sets the arming response of a channel to an outgoing trigger.
NOTE
See Table Table 9 , for information on how this command affects the generation of
output triggers using power measurements.
parameters: A boolean value: OFF or 0: trigger rearming disabled
ON or 1: trigger rearming enabled (default)
NOTE
If you return to Local control, all modules return to the default setting.
response: none
example: trig1:outp:rearm 1
affects: All Agilent 8163A/B series power meters, and Agilent 8161x series return loss modules.
dual sensors: Can only be sent to master channel, slave channel is also affected.
command:
:TRIGger[n][:CHANnel[m]]:OUTPut:REARm?
syntax: :TRIGger[n][:CHANnel[m]]:OUTPut:REARm?
description: Returns the arming response of a channel to an outgoing trigger.
parameters: none
response: A boolean value: 0: trigger rearming disabled (default)
1: trigger rearming enabled.
example: trig1:outp:rearm? → 0<END>
affects: All Agilent 8163A/B series power meters, and Agilent 8161x series return loss modules.
dual sensors: Can only be sent to master channel, slave channel parameters are identical.
command:
:TRIGger:CONFiguration
syntax: :TRIGger:CONFiguration<wsp><triggering mode>
description: Sets the hardware trigger configuration with regard to Output and Input Trigger Connectors.
parameters: 0 or DISabled:
1 or DEFault:
2 or PASSthrough:
3 or LOOPback:
Trigger connectors are disabled.
The Input Trigger Connector is activated, the incoming trigger response
for each slot “:TRIGger[n][:CHANnel[m]]:INPut” on page 173 deter-
mines how each slot responds to an incoming trigger, all slot events
(see “:TRIGger[n][:CHANnel[m]]:OUTPut” on page 176) can trigger the
Output Trigger Connector.
The same as DEFault but a trigger at the Input Trigger Connector gener-
ates a trigger at the Output Trigger Connector automatically.
The same as DEFault but a trigger at the Output Trigger Connector gen-
erates a trigger at the Input Trigger Connector automatically.
response: none
example: trig:conf dis
