External Sweep Trigger Slope
:SWEep:STRG:SLOPe EXTN|EXTP
:SWEep:STRG:SLOPe?
This command toggles the slope of external trigger source
between negative (
EXTN) and positive (EXTP). This command
is valid only when an external trigger source is properly
connected and enabled.
If you have select EXT (an external trigger source), the
query returns the current slope of the external trigger
source. If you have NOT select EXT or you preset the signal
generator, the query returns “NA”.
Point Trigger
:SWEep:PTRG IMMediate|KEY|EXT
:SWEep:PTRG?
This command sets the point trigger mode to one of the
following choices:
• IMMediate
- immediately initiates a sweep.
• KEY - arms a sweep and requires you to send the
command “TRIGger:IMMediate”
• EXT - enables an external trigger source to initiate each
point in a sweep.
The query returns the current sweep trigger mode.
