This section describes the trigger settings.
A trigger is a signal or event that starts the Analyzer measurement cycle. The measurement cycle, by default, includes the measurement of all opened channels. The Analyzer measures the channels sequentially one after another in one measurement cycle. At some conditions, the channel can be excluded from the measurement cycle (See Channel Initiation Mode and Trigger Scope).
For a detailed description of trigger state diagram see Trigger State Diagram.
The trigger settings include:
•Selection the trigger source (See Trigger Source).
•Selection the channel initiation mode (See Channel Initiation Mode).
•Setting the trigger scope (See Trigger Scope).
•Setting the averaging trigger function (See Averaging Trigger).
An external device can be used as a trigger source. For a detailed description of external trigger settings see External Trigger Settings.
The trigger output of the Analyzer can be a trigger source for other devices (See Trigger Output).
