270 Agilent X-Series Signal Generators SCPI Command Reference
Arb Commands
Dmodulation Subsystem–N5172B/82B with Option 431 ([:SOURce]:RADio:DMODulation:ARB)
• The trigger signal polarity:
— gating mode, see “:TRIGger:TYPE:GATE” on page 269
— continuous and single modes, see “:TRIGger[:SOURce]:EXTernal:SLOPe” on
page 271
• The time delay between when the X- Series signal generator receives a trigger
and when the waveform responds to the trigger. There are two parts to setting
the delay:
— setting the amount of delay, see “:TRIGger[:SOURce]:EXTernal:DELay” on
page 270
— turning the delay on, see “:TRIGger[:SOURce]:EXTernal:DELay:STATe” on
page 270
BUS This choice enables triggering over the GPIB or LAN using the *TRG or GET
commands or the AUXILIARY INTERFACE (RS–232) using the *TRG command.

:TRIGger[:SOURce]:EXTernal:DELay
Supported N5172B/82B with Option 431
[:SOURce]:RADio:DMODulation:ARB:TRIGger[:SOURce]:EXTernal:DELay <val>
[:SOURce]:RADio:DMODulation:ARB:TRIGger[:SOURce]:EXTernal:DELay?
This command sets the amount of time to delay the X-Series signal generator’s response to an
external trigger.
The delay is a path (time) delay between when the X- Series signal generator receives the trigger and
when it responds to the trigger. For example, configuring a trigger delay of two seconds, causes the
X- Series signal generator to wait two seconds after receipt of the trigger before the X- Series signal
generator plays the waveform.
The delay does not occur until you turn it on (see “:TRIGger[:SOURce]:EXTernal:DELay:STATe” on
page 270). You can set the delay value either before or after turning it on.
For more information on configuring an external trigger source and to select external as the trigger
source, see “:TRIGger[:SOURce]” on page 269.
The unit of measurement for the variable <val> is in seconds (nsec–sec).
