:READings <b>
This command is used to specify the number of pre-trigger readings.
Usage
:TRACe:FEED:PRETrigger:AMOunt:READings <n>
:READings?
:READings? DEFault
:READings? MAXimum
:READings? MINimum
<n>
Details
This command is used to specify how much of the defined buffer (:POINts) is used to store pre-
triggered readings. This command is essentially the same as the previous :PERCent command
except the amount is expressed as an exact value rather than a percent.
Sending a value that exceeds the defined size of the buffer generates an error. The command is
ignored.

:SOURce <name>
This command is used to specify a pre-trigger event.
Usage
:TRACe:FEED:PRETrigger:SOURce <name>
:SOURce?
<name>
Details
This command is used to specify the event for the pre-trigger storage mode. With the pre-trigger
mode selected, readings are continuously stored in the buffer while waiting for the pre-trigger source
event.
With TLINk selected, an input trigger through the trigger link provides the pre-trigger event. The
trigger link line used for the input trigger is programmed from the trigger subsystem.
With BUS selected, a GPIB bus trigger (GET or *TRG) provides the pre-trigger event.
With MANual selected, pressing the front panel TRIG key provides the pre-trigger event.
