COMMAND REFERENCE

4 - 121

After a *RST command, the trigger level is MAXimum and auto level peak-peak is switched off.

Notice that there exists a coupling between programming the attenuator (vertical sensitivity) and the trigger level. If the attenuator is changed, the trigger level is also adapted to keep the signal display on the screen.

Programming tip:

First program the attenuator (SENSe:VOLTage:RANGe:PTPeak), and then the trigger level (TRIGger:LEVel).

Example:

 

 

Send *RST

Resets the instrument.

Send TRIGger:SOURce INTernal1

Trigger source

becomes

Send INITiate:CONTinuous ON

channel 1.

 

Continuous initiation.

Send SENSe:VOLTage:RANGe:PTPeak 8

1 V/div. sensitivity

 

Send TRIGger:LEVel 0.2

Trigger level becomes 0.2 V.

 

Level peak-peak is also

Send TRIGger:LEVel:AUTO ON

switched off.

 

Switches level peak-peak on

 

and deactivates

the trigger

 

level.

 

Front panel compliance:

The TRIGger:LEVel command is the remote equivalent of the front panel TRIGGER LEVEL knob. The TRIGger:LEVel:AUTO command is the remote equivalent of the front panel TRIGGER MAIN TB - level-pp on/off softkey menu.
