TRIGGER:SET:?
Description:
The current pulse parameters will be displayed with this command. They come in this order:
Rising, Open Time, Falling, Needle Lift, Number of Pulses, Delay
All parameters relating to time are still shown as 1/10 ms (so 10 equals to 1 ms).
If the system is set to External-Control-Mode the Open Time will be displayed as “EXTERNAL”.
Example:
Input:
TRIGGER:SET:?
Result:
You see the current pulse parameters.
Rising: 10 equals 1 ms (ms = millisecond)
Open Time: 10 equals 1.0 ms
Falling: 5 equals 0.5 ms
Needle Lift: 80 %
Number of Pulses: 20
Delay: 8 equals 0.8 ms
Return:
10,10,0,5,80,20,8
7.
TRIGGER:SET:<Rising>,<Open Time>,<Falling>,<Needle Lift>,<Number of Pulses>,<Delay>
Description:
The current pulse parameters can be changed with this command. The trigger is not initiated.
All parameters relating to time are shown as 1/10 ms (so 10 equals to 1 ms).
Do only use positive integer numbers. If you want to use the External-Control-Mode enter
“EXTENRAL” for the Open Time. For saving use the command
