:TRIGger:SWEep

(see page 790)

Command Syntax

:TRIGger:SWEep <sweep>

<sweep> ::= {AUTO | NORMal}

The :TRIGger:SWEep command selects the trigger sweep mode.

When AUTO sweep mode is selected, a baseline is displayed in the absence

of a signal. If a signal is present but the oscilloscope is not triggered, the

unsynchronized signal is displayed instead of a baseline.

When NORMal sweep mode is selected and no trigger is present, the

instrument does not sweep, and the data acquired on the previous trigger

remains on the screen.

The :TRIGger:SWEep? query returns the current trigger sweep mode.
