trigger. This command is often used to “prime the pump” in cases such as setting
up a scan list measurement.
TRIGger([:SEQuence1]|:STARt)[:LAYer]:MODE <mode>
When an instrument has been configured for some type of array measurement,
this command specifies whether the instrument will perform one or all operations
when a trigger is received. If the mode is ALL, then all operations will be
completed upon receipt of one trigger condition. If the mode is ONCE, then the
instrument will perform one operation and reenter the initiated state. This will
continue until the specified number of triggers has been received (and hence, the
specified number of operations has been completed).
TRIGger([:SEQuence1] |:STARt)[:LAYer]:SOURce <source>
Selects or queries the trigger source to be used when the instrument is initiated.
