:TRIGger:MODE
Command :TRIGger:MODE {EDGE | GLITch | PATTern | STATe | DELay | TIMeout | TV

Mode Definition
COMM COMM mode lets you trigger on a serial pattern of bits in a waveform.
DELay Delay by Events mode lets you view pulses in your waveform that occur
a number of events after a specified waveform edge. Delay by Time
mode lets you view pulses in your waveform that occur a long time after
a specified waveform edge.
EDGE Edge trigger mode.
GLITch Trigger on a pulse that has a width less than a specified amount of time.
PATTern Pattern triggering lets you trigger the oscilloscope using more than one
channel as the trigger source. You can also use pattern triggering to
trigger on a pulse of a given width.
PWIDth Pulse width triggering lets you trigger on a pulse that is greater than or
less than a specified width and of a certain polarity.
RUNT Runt triggering lets you trigger on positive or negative pulses that are
smaller in amplitude than other pulses in your waveform.
SBUS<N> Serial triggering on SBUS1, SBUS2, SBUS3, or SBUS4.
SHOLd Setup and Hold triggering let you trigger on Setup or Hold violations in
your circuit.
STATe State triggering lets you set the oscilloscope to use several channels as
the trigger source, with one of the channels being used as a clock
waveform.
TIMeout Timeout triggering lets you trigger when the waveform remains high too
long, low to long, or unchanged too long.
TRANsition Edge Transition triggering lets you trigger on an edge that violates a rise
time or fall time specification.
TV TV trigger mode lets you trigger the oscilloscope on one of the standard
television waveforms. You can also use this mode to trigger on a custom
television waveform that you define.
VIOLation Trigger violation modes: Pulse WIDth, SETup, TRANsition.
