:TRIGger:SLOPe:WHEN 
:TRIGger:SLOPe:WHEN <when> 
:TRIGger:SLOPe:WHEN? 
Set or query the trigger condition in slope trigger. 
{PGReater|PLESs|NGReater| 
NLESs|PGLess|NGLess} 
  PGReater/PLESs: you need to specify a time value (refer to :TRIGger:SLOPe:TIME). 
The oscilloscope triggers when the positive slope time of the input signal is 
greater/lower than the specified time. 
  NGReater/NLESs: you need to specify a time value (refer to :TRIGger:SLOPe:TIME). 
The oscilloscope triggers when the negative slope time of the input signal is 
greater/lower than the specified time. 
  PGLess/NGLess: you need to specify an upper limit (refer 
to :TRIGger:SLOPe:TUPPer) and a lower limit (refer to :TRIGger:SLOPe:TLOWer) of 
the time. The oscilloscope triggers when the positive/negative slope time of the input 
signal is greater than the specified lower limit and lower than the specified upper 
limit. 
The query returns PGR, PLES, NGR, NLES, PGL, or NGL.   
:TRIGger:SLOPe:WHEN NLESs /*Set the trigger condition to NLESs*/ 
:TRIGger:SLOPe:WHEN?                  /*The query returns NLES*/ 
 
 
:TRIGger:SLOPe:TIME 
:TRIGger:SLOPe:TIME <time> 
:TRIGger:SLOPe:TIME? 
Set or query the time value in slope trigger. The default unit is s.   
PGReater, NGReater: 1μs 
PLESs, NLESs: 2μs 
This command is available when the trigger condition (refer to :TRIGger:SLOPe:WHEN) is 
PGReater, PLESs, NGReater, and NLESs.   
The query returns the time value in scientific notation.   
:TRIGger:SLOPe:TIME 0.000003 /*Set the time value to 3μs*/ 
:TRIGger:SLOPe:TIME?                    /*The query returns 3.000000e-06*/
