*TRG
TRiGger generates a BUS-trigger event. If the sensor is in the WAIT_FOR_TRG state
and the source for the trigger is set to BUS (TRIG:SOUR BUS), the sensor enters the
MEASURING state. *TRG invalidates all current measuring results. A query of measure-
ment data following *TRG will thus always return the measured value determined in
response to *TRG.
Table 6-3: Error messages:
-211 Trigger ignored: No sensor is in the WAIT_FOR_TRG state.
-211 Trigger ignored: A sensor is in the WAIT_FOR_TRG state but the trigger source is not

6.3 Overview of SCPI Command Systems
The SCPI commands are grouped in command systems according to their function. Only
the most important functions are shown in the figures.
The commands are separated in high-level commands and low-level commands. The
high-level measurement commands combine several low-level setting commands in one
