Trigger system
When triggers are used to make measurements, the product operation varies depending on the continu-
ous measurement function (:INITiate:CONTinuous) and trigger source (:TRIGger:SOURce).
Trigger source
(:TRIG:SOUR)
*1. This can only be set using a command.
*2. Trigger input is not accepted.
*3. If you send :READ? and the product changes to the trigger wait state, *TRG cannot be used.

EXT Sending *TRG or a TRIG-IN signal to the
SIGNAL I/O connector or pressing SNGL
TRG on the front panel applies a trigger.
After the measurement is completed, the
product changes to the trigger wait state.

state applies a trigger. After outputting
the measured value, the product returns
to the idle state.
(Trigger flow chart B)
Sending :INITiate or :READ? in the idle
*2
state causes the product to change to
the trigger wait state. Sending *TRG
a TRIG-IN signal to the SIGNAL I/O con-
nector applies a trigger. After outputting
the measured value, the product returns
to the idle state.
