8.1 Trigger
Notes ESA commands for trigger offset, which allowed you to use a positive or negative delay when in zero
span and in a Res BW >= 1 kHz. For ESA compatibility, X-series instruments keep track of this offset
and adds it to the Trigger Delay for VIDeo, LINE, EXTernal1 or EXTernal2 whenever the value is sent to
the hardware, if in Zero Span and RBW >= 1 kHz

Trigger Delay Parameters
Note: in Swept SA, when transitioning from Zero Span to Swept spans, the trigger
delay is clipped to -150 ms if it had been longer in Zero Span.
