command: :TRIGger[n][:CHANnel[m]]:I NPut?
syntax: :TRIGger[n][:CHANnel[m]]:INPut?
description: Returns the incoming trigger response.

NEXTstep:
SWStart:
Ignore incoming trigger.
Start a single measurement. If a measureme nt function is active, see
“:SENSe[n][:CHANnel[m]]:FUNCtion:STATe” on page 100, one sample is
performed and the result is stored in the data a rray, see
“:SENSe[n][:CHANnel[m]]:FUNCtion:RESult?” on page 97.
Start a complete measu rement. If a measur ement function is active, see
“:SENSe[n][:CHANnel[m]]:FUNCtion:STATe” on page 100, a complete mea-
surement function is performed.
Perform next step of a stepped sweep.
Start a sweep.
example: trig1:inp? → ign<END>
affects: All tunable laser modules, power mete rs, and return loss modules, an d attenuators with
power control.
dual sensors: Can only be sent to master channel, sl ave channel parameters are identical.
command: :TRIGger[ n][:CHANnel[m]]:INPut:REARm
syntax: :TRIGger[n][:CHANnel[m]]:INPut:REARm<wsp>OFF|ON|0|1
description: Sets the arming response of a channel to an incoming trigger.
NOTE See TableTable 8 , for information on how this comm and affects triggering power
measurements.
parameters: A boolean value: OFF or 0: trigger rearming disabled
ON or 1: trigger rearming enabled (default)
NOTE If you return to Local control, all modules ret urn to the default setting.
response: none
example: trig1:inp:rearm 0
affects: All Agilent 8163A/B series power mete r modules, and Agilent 8161x se ries return loss mod-
ules.
dual sensors: Can only be sent to master channe l, slave channel is also affecte d.
