Trigger Slope
You may select whether the multimeter uses the rising edge (POS) or falling
edge (NEG) of the external trigger signal to trigger a reading, or
(independently) for the voltmeter complete output signal. The default for both
is NEG.
• Front Panel Operation: Press
TRIGGER > SETUP > N SAMPLES > TRIG DELAY > TRIG SLOPE > VMC SLOPE
For each of TRIG SLOPE and VMC SLOPE, you can select either NEG or POS:
• TRIG SLOPE sets the slope of the Ext Trig input signal (NEG or POS).
• VMC SLOPE sets the slope of the VM Comp output signal (NEG or POS).
Then step through or exit the configuration menu.
• Remote Interface Operation: The following command selects the trigger slope
for the external trigger (Ext Trig) connector:
TRIGger:SLOPe {POSitive>NEGative}
The following query returns the selected trigger slope for the Ext Trig
connector:
TRIGger:SLOPe?
This query returns POS or NEG.
The following command selects the signal slope for the voltmeter complete
(VM Comp) signal:
OUTPut:TRIGger:SLOPe {POSitive>NEGative}
The following query returns the selected trigger slope for the VM Comp
connector:
OUTPut:TRIGger:SLOPe?
This query returns POS or NEG.
Refer to the Agilent 34410A/11A/L4411A Programmer’s Reference Help for
a complete description and syntax for this command.
