Measurement Operations & Settings Triggering - The TRIGger Subsystem
178 Agilent 8163A/B, 8164A/B & 8166A/B Mainframes, Fifth Edition
command:
:TRIGger:CONFiguration?
syntax: :TRIGger:CONFiguration?
description: Returns the hardware trigger configuration.
parameters: none
response: DIS:
DEF:
PASS:
LOOP:
CUSTOM:
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 determines how
each slot responds to an incoming trigger, all slot events (see
“:TRIGger[n][:CHANnel[m]]:OUTPut” on page 176) can trigger the Output Trig-
ger Connector.
The same as DEFault but a trigger at the Input Trigger Connector generates a
trigger at the Output Trigger Connector automatically.
The same as DEFault but a trigger at the Output Trigger Connector generates a
trigger at the Input Trigger Connector automatically.
A custom configuration is active using either the command
“:TRIGger:CONFiguration:EXTended” on page 179 or the
Agilent 816x VXIplug&play Instrument Driver. See “The Agilent 816x
VXIplug&play Instrument Driver” on page 213.
example: trig:conf? → DEF<END>
