TRIGger
The TRIGger subsystem controls the triggering operation of RF multiplexer modules in a switchbox.
Subsystem Syntax TRIGger
[:IMMediate]
:SOURce BUS EXTernal HOLD IMMediate :SOURce?
[:IMMediate] TRIGger[:IMMediate] causes a trigger to occur when the defined trigger source is TRIGger:SOURce HOLD or TRIGger:SOURce BUS.
Comments ∙ Executing the TRIGger[:IMMediate] Command: A channel list must be defined with [ROUTe:]SCAN <channel_list> and an INITiate[:IMMediate] command must be executed before TRIGger[:IMMediate] will be executed.
∙HOLD or BUS Source Remains: The TRIGger:SOURce HOLD or
TRIGger:SOURce BUS commands remain in effect, if selected, after triggering a switchbox with the TRIGger[:IMMediate] command.
∙Related Commands: INITiate, [ROUTe:]SCAN
Example Advancing Scan Using the TRIGger Command
This example uses the TRIGger command to advance the scan of a
TRIG:SOUR HOLD | ! Sets trigger source to HOLD |
SCAN (@100:103) | ! Defines channel list |
INIT | ! Begin scan, close channel 00 |
loop statement | ! Start count loop |
TRIG | ! Advance scan to next channel |
increment loop | ! Increment loop count |
