Trigger and List Control Keys
The Trigger Control key controls output transient triggers. The List key controls the generation of output lists. A list can contain up to 100 points, each of which can specify an output change (or transient). Refer to Chapter 4 of the Programming Guide for more information about programming triggers and lists.
Press this key to access the trigger control menu list.
Display | Command Function |
INIT:IMMED | Initiate the transient trigger sequence immediately. |
INIT:CONT <char> | Set continuous trigger initiation (ON or OFF). |
TRIG:SOUR <char> | Select transient trigger source (BUS, EXT, TTLT or |
| IMM). |
DELAY <value> | Set trigger delay in seconds. |
ABORT | Abort all trigger sequences. |
SYNC:SOUR <char> | Select trigger sync source (PHASE or IMM). |
SYNC:PHASE <value> | Set synchronous phase reference angle in degrees. |
