SWStart:
You must prearm a wavelength sweep or a measurement function before an action can be triggered:
First, set the incoming trigger response.
Then:
prearm a wavelength sweep using
page 176. The wavelength of the tunable laser module is set to the start wavelength of the sweep.
or prearm a measurement function using
NOTE: If a trigger signal arrives at the Input Trigger Connector at the same time that the
:SENSe[n][:CHANnel[m]]:FUNCtion:STATe
invalid. You should always discard the first measurement value in this case.
The module performs the appropriate action when it is triggered.
response: none
example: trig1:inp ign
affects: All tunable laser modules except 81950A, power meters, and return loss modules, and attenuators with power control.
If you use the Keysight 816x VXIplug&play Instrument Driver, you can trigger power measurements using HP 8153A Series
power meters.
dual sensors: Can only be sent to master channel, slave channel is also affected.

Ignore incoming trigger.
Start a single measurement. If a measurement function is active, see
:SENSe[n][:CHANnel[m]]:FUNCtion:STATe
the result is stored in the data array, see
on page 100.
Start a complete measurement. If a measurement function is active,
:SENSe[n][:CHANnel[m]]:FUNCtion:STATe

function is performed.
Perform next step of a stepped sweep.
Start a sweep cycle.
