This attribute selects which event(s) will cause the measure event detector to enter the
detected state. Set this attribute to nil to bypass waiting for an event.
eventid may be one of the following (existing trigger event ID's):

digio.trigger[line].EVENT_ID: An edge (either rising, falling, or either based on the
configuration of the line) on the digital input line.

display.trigger.EVENT_ID: The trigger key on the front panel is pressed.

trigger.EVENT_ID: A *trg message on the active command interface. If GPIB is
the active command interface, a GET message will also generate this event. Also,
the trigger.set function will generate this event.

trigger.blender[N].EVENT_ID: A combination of events has occurred.

trigger.timer[N].EVENT_ID: A delay expired. These can be expanded to include
LXI alarms.

tsplink.trigger[N].EVENT_ID: An edge (either rising, falling, or either based on the
configuration of the line) on the tsplink trigger line.

lan.trigger[N].EVENT_ID

scan.trigger.EVENT_SCAN_READY: Scan Ready Event.

scan.trigger.EVENT_SCAN_START: Scan Start Event

scan.trigger.EVENT_CHANNEL_READY: Channel Ready Event

scan.trigger.EVENT_MEASURE_COMP: Measure Complete Event

scan.trigger.EVENT_SEQUENCE_COMP: Sequence Complete Event

scan.trigger.EVENT_SCAN_COMP: Scan Complete Event

scan.trigger.EVENT_IDLE: Idle Event
Use this to start a set of measure count readings that are being triggered by a single
event. If desire an event to pace the readings then, use the sample trigger source.
scan.trigger.sequence.stimulus
To set trigger stimulus of the measure event detector to channel ready event:
scan.trigger.measure.stimulus =
scan.trigger.EVENT_CHAN_READY
Clear the sequence event detector.
scan.trigger.sequence.clear()
This function will set the sequence event detector to the undetected state.
To clear the sequence event detector:
scan.trigger.sequence.clear()
Set the sequence event detector to the detected state.
scan.trigger.sequence.set()
