33 Trigger Commands
:TRIGger:SWEep
Command :TRIGger:SWEep {AUTO | TRIGgered | SINGle}
The :TRIGger:SWEep command selects the oscilloscope sweep mode.
<AUTO> When you select AUTO, if a trigger event does not occur within a time
determined by the oscilloscope settings, the oscilloscope automatically
forces a trigger which causes the oscilloscope to sweep. If the frequency of
your waveform is 50 Hz or less, you should not use the AUTO sweep mode
because it is possible that the oscilloscope will automatically trigger before
your waveform trigger occurs.
<TRIGgered> When you select TRIGgered, if no trigger occurs, the oscilloscope will not
sweep, and the previously acquired data will remain on the screen.
<SINGle> When you select SINGle, if no trigger occurs, the oscilloscope will not
sweep, and the previously acquired data will remain on the screen.
