TRIGger:MAIn:PULse:WIDth:HIGHLimit and
TRIGger:MAIn:PULse:WIDth:LOWLimit commands respectively.
TRIGGER:MAIN:PULSE:WIDTH:WHEN?
returns either OUTSIDE or WITHIN, indicating the conditions for generating a
pulse trigger.
TRIGger:MAIn:TYPe
Sets or queries the type of main trigger. This is equivalent to setting Type in the
Trigger menu.
Trigger
TRIGger:MAIn:TYPe { EDGE | LOGIc | PULse | VIDeo }
(Note: only the TDS 5XXA, 6XXA, & 7XXA use the LOGIc and PULse
arguments. Only digitizing oscilloscopes with option 5 use the VIDeo argument.)
TRIGger:MAIn:TYPe?

EDGE
EDGE is a normal trigger. A trigger event occurs when a signal passes through a
specified voltage level in a specified direction and is controlled by the TRIG-
ger:MAIn:EDGE commands.
LOGIc (TDS 5XXA, 6XXA, & 7XXA only) specifies that a trigger occurs when
specified conditions are met and is controlled by the TRIGger:MAIn:LOGIc
commands.
PULse (TDS 5XXA, 6XXA, & 7XXA only) specifies that a trigger occurs when
a specified pulse is found and is controlled by the TRIGger:MAIn:PULse
commands.
VIDeo (option 05 only) specifies that a trigger occurs when a specified signal is
found and is controlled by the TRIGger:MAIn:VIDeo commands.
