Agilent Technologies L34410A - Trigger Delay

72 34410A/11A/L4411A User’s Guide
2Features and Functions
• Remote Interface Operation: The following commands set the sample count
(must be >1) and pre–trigger sample count:
SAMPle:COUNt {<count>|MIN|MAX|DEF}
SAMPle:COUNt:PRETrigger {<PT
count >>MIN>MAX|DEF}
Refer to the Agilent 34410A/11A/L4411A Programmer’s Reference Help for
a complete description and syntax for this command.
Trigger Delay
You can manually specify a delay between the trigger signal and the first
sample that follows. This may be useful in applications where you want to
allow the input signal to settle before taking a reading, or for pacing a burst of
readings.
• The trigger delay may be set from 0 to 3600 seconds.
• The continuity and diode test functions ignore the trigger delay setting.
• If a trigger delay is not manually set, the default trigger delay is
automatically set, based on function, range, integration time and/or
ac filter setting (see also “Automatic Trigger Delay” on page 73).
• If you manually specify a trigger delay, that delay is used for all
measurement functions (except continuity and diode test).
• Front Panel Operation: Press
TRIGGER > SETUP > N SAMPLES > PRE-TRIG CNT > TRIG DELAY
Select AUTO, ZERO, or MANUAL:
• Select AUTO to use the automatic trigger delay.
• Select ZERO for a zero delay.
• Select MANUAL to enter the desired delay using the navigation keypad.
Then step through or exit the menu.
• Remote Interface Operation: The following command specifies the trigger
delay, in seconds:
TRIGger:DELay {<
seconds >>MIN>MAX}
The following command specifies the automatic trigger delay:
TRIGger:DELay:AUTO
