Trigger Commands
The oscilloscope trigger circuitry helps you locate the waveform you
want to view. There are several different types of triggering, but the one
that is used most often is edge triggering. Edge triggering identifies a
trigger condition by looking for the slope (rising or falling) and voltage
level (trigger level) on the source you select. Any input channel,
auxiliary input trigger (only in 4-channel oscilloscopes), line, or external
trigger (only in 2-channel oscilloscopes) can be used as the trigger
source.
The commands in the TRIGger subsystem define the conditions for
triggering. Many of the commands in the TRIGger subsystem are used
in more than one of the trigger modes. The command set has been
defined to closely represent the front-panel trigger menus. As a trade-
off, there may be less compatibility between Infiniium Oscilloscopes and
command sets for previous oscilloscopes. Infiniium Oscilloscopes still
accept some commands for compatibility with previous instruments. An
alternative command that is accepted by the oscilloscope is noted for a
particular command.
These TRIGger commands and queries are implemented in the Infiniium
