RF Burst Option B7E (RF Communications Hardware) only. Allows the analyzer 
to be triggered by an RF burst envelope signal. The trigger level can be 
set to either a level relative to the peak of the burst or to an absolute 
value.

Trig Delay 
On Off
Allows you to set and turn on or off a delay, during which the analyzer 
will wait to begin a sweep after receiving an external trigger signal. 
This function is not available when 
Gate is on. Trig Delay is active when 
External is selected.

NOTE This function is not available in Free Run or Video Trigger modes.
Trig Offset 
On Off
Allows you to set and turn on or off an offset value from the trigger 
point of the sweep at which to begin storing data in the trace of the 
analyzer. The offset is specified as a function of time, and permits 
positive (pre trigger) and negative (post trigger) values to be specified.

NOTE This function is only available when in Zero Span. (It is grayed out 
when in swept span.) If this key is pressed in swept spans, the error 
message: Trigger Offset unavailable in swept spans is displayed 
in the status line. The value and state of Trigger Offset is remembered 
if Zero Span is exited and restored when Zero Span is reselected.
NOTE This function is only available with Resolution Bandwidths of 1 kHz or 
greater. If this key is pressed when the Resolution Bandwidths is less 
than 1 kHz, the error message: Trigger Offset unavailable in 
bandwidths < 1 kHz is displayed in the status line. While Trigger 
Offset is on, it is not possible for the instrument to be set to a 
Resolution Bandwidth less than 1 kHz. Any attempt to do so will cause 
the error message: Bandwidths <1 kHz unavailable with Trigger 
Offset on to be displayed in the status line.
TV Trig Setup Option B7B (TV Trigger and Picture on Screen) only. Accesses the setup 
functions for TV Trigger.

Field
  Allows you to determine how the fields of the TV 
picture signal will be affected by the trigger system. 
One complete TV image consists of one frame of 525 or 
625 horizontal lines depending on the TV standard 
being used. Each frame is composed of two fields of 
interlacing lines, each consisting of 262 1/2 lines (or 312 
1/2 lines). The fields are called Field One and Field
