Point Trigger

Point trigger is a method used to measure a single point each time the instrument is triggered. You can perform this type of measurement by turning ON/OFF the point trigger function.

Switching Mode

You can use the following command to toggle between the point trigger's ON/OFF status.

• If the trigger source is internal, the point trigger function does not work even if it is specified to ON.

Low-latency external trigger

When the trigger source is an external trigger and the point trigger function is on, the low-latency external trigger function is available. The low-latency external trigger function is used to set the external trigger delay time each time a trigger for a measurement point is given.

The setting of the low-latency external trigger function is valid for all channels.

Setting the low-latency external trigger

To toggle ON/OFF the low-latency external trigger function, use the following command:

:TRIG:EXT:LLAT

If the trigger source is not an external trigger, the low-latency external trigger function does not work even if it is specified to ON, nor does it work when the point trigger function is off.

To set the external trigger delay time, use the following command:

:TRIG:EXT:DEL
