The following subsections describe each state and explains how the trigger
system switches among the states.
System-Wide States and Transitions
"Hold" State
The trigger system switches to "Hold" state when one of the following
commands is executed (arrow "e" in Trigger system). Also, turning ON the
power to the instrument puts the trigger system into "Hold" state. When
the power is turned ON, the continuous initiation mode is ON for channel 1
and the trigger source is set to "Internal". Accordingly, the trigger system
immediately switches to "Waiting for Trigger" state and subsequently
repeats transitions between "Measurement" and "Waiting for Trigger"
states.
