*1.This function is effective only for the transient measurement. This trigger
source cannot be selected for other measurements. It is not displayed on the
softkey either.
To set the trigger source, use the following command ("xx" specifies the measurements
(PN,SP,FP,TR) that are now waiting for trigger):
• :TRIGger:xx:SOURce
"Measurement" State
In the "Measurement" state, the instrument starts the measurement that was in the
"Initiate" state immediately before the transition to this state.
If the delay time of DC control voltage and DC power voltage are set (by
:SOURce:VOLTage:CONTrol:DELay command on page 341,
:SOURce:VOLTage:POWer:DELay command on page 344), the instrument waits for
the elapse of the sweep delay time before starting a measurement.
When the instrument has finished measuring, the trigger system behaves in one of the
following ways depending on the setting of the continuous initiation mode.
If continuous initiation mode is off:
The trigger system switches to the "Hold" state; "c" in Figure 3-1)
If continuous initiation mode is on:
The trigger system switches to the "Hold" state and then to the
"Waiting for Trigger" state; "c" and "a" in Figure 3-1)
