Description
Specifies the number of acquisitions before control flows up
to the superior layer. Default = 1, Max = 1000000
Returns the Count setting
Sets the coupling used with :SOURce:INTernal. See also
:LEVel and :SLOPe. Default = AC
Returns the coupling setting
When ON, the time delay between source event detection
and the start of an acquisition is determined automatically
(the DMM sets an appropriate delay needed for settling after
a configuration change). Default = ON
Returns the auto delay setting, 1 = ON, 0 = OFF
Set the time delay between source event detection and the
start of an acquisition
Returns the delay setting in seconds
numeric is an integer value to specify how many TRIGger
events must be recognised before DELay is started. ECOunt
provides TRIGger event division. Default = 1, Max =
10000000
Returns the Ecount setting
Sets the polarity of the External trigger edge and optionally,
signal type to TTL or Bipolar. Default = Negative, TTL
Returns the external edge polarity and edge type settings
Turns the filter in the event detector path ON or OFF. The
filter affects both the signal and event detector paths. Default
= OFF
Returns the filter state
When ON, the holdoff period is set Automatically
Returns the state of HOLDoff:AUTO (1 = ON, 2 = OFF)
Manually sets the HOLDoff period. Default 0, Maximum 100 s
Return the HOLDoff period
Modifies event detection behaviour. If the system is waiting
for an event in this layer, this one-time command bypasses
event detection, ECOunt and DELay. An acquisition is
immediately started. If not waiting at the event detector the
command is ignored and error -221 issued.
Sets the percentage of range at which arming occurs when
Source is INTernal. Default = 0 %, Min = -200, Max = 200
Returns the level setting as a percentage of range.
Reset the trigger system to default settings. :RESet does not
change the state of INIT:CONT
