TRIGger :DELay

TRIGger

 

The TRIGger command subsystem controls the behavior of the trigger system

 

 

once it is initiated (see INITiate command subsystem). The trigger command

 

 

subsystem controls:

 

 

 

 

 

 

• The delay between trigger and first Pacer pulse (TRIG:DELay)

 

 

 

 

• An immediate software trigger (TRIG:IMM)

 

 

 

 

The source of the trigger (TRIG:SOUR BUS EXT HOLD IMM)
