this is not the case; for backwards compatibility, no <measurement> parameter is
used when setting the Trigger Source for the Swept SA measurement.
Remote Command
:TRIGger:<measurement>[:SEQuence]:RF:SOURce EXTernal1 | EXTernal2 |
IMMediate | LEVel | FMT | LINE | FRAMe | RFBurst | VIDeo | IF | TV | PXI |
INTernal | PRTChandet | PRTFrame | PRTEvent
:TRIGger:<measurement>[:SEQuence]:RF:SOURce?
Note that the available parameters are model number and hardware dependent
Example Select the external 1 trigger input for the ACP measurement and the RF input:
:TRIG:ACP:RF:SOUR EXT1
Select video triggering for the SANalyzer measurement and the RF input. For SAN, do not use the
<measurement> keyword:
:TRIG:RF:SOUR VID
Notes Not all measurements have all the trigger sources available to them. Check the trigger source
documentation for your specific measurement to see what sources are available
Note that not all trigger sources are available for each input, and that the available parameters are
model number and hardware dependent
For the RF Trigger Source, the following trigger sources are available:
IMMediate
free run triggering
VIDeo
triggers on the video signal level
LEVel
triggers on the video signal level with time qualified triggering
FMT
triggers on the amplitude spectrum with frequency mask triggering
LINE
triggers on the power line signal
EXTernal1
or EXTernal
triggers on an externally connected trigger source marked “Trigger 1 In”
on the rear panel of standalone instruments, “Trigger 3” on the front
panel of EXM and VXT model M9421A, and “Trigger 1” on the front panel
of VXT models M9410A/11A/15A/16A
EXTernal2
triggers on an externally connected trigger source marked “Trigger 2 In”
on the front panel of standalone instruments, and “Trigger 1” on the front
panel of EXM and VXT model M9421A, and “Trigger 2” on the front panel
of VXT models M9410A/11A/15A/16A. In some models, there is no
second External input. In these models, the External 2 selection is not
shown and the EXTernal2 parameter will generate a “Hardware
missing; Not available for this model number” message
RFBurst
triggers on the bursted frame
FRAMe
triggers on the periodic timer
IF (video) same as video, for backwards compatibility only
PRTChandet
triggers on Base Station Emulation detecting a valid UL signal
(PUSCH/PUCCH/PRACH/SRS)
