3.3.1.8 Interval
The interval trigger analyzes the time between two pulses.
While the interval trigger can only analyze either positive or negative polarity, searching
for an interval is also possible for both polarities at the same time ("Either").
Polarity
Indicates the polarity of a pulse, that is the direction of the first pulse slope.
"Positive"
Triggers on positive going pulses.
"Negative"
Triggers on negative going pulses.
SCPI command:
TRIGger<m>:WIDTh:POLarity on page 461
TRIGger<m>:INTerval:POLarity on page 469
Trigger level
Sets the voltage level for the trigger event. You can also drag the trigger level marker on
the display (TA or TB on the right edge of the display). The range of the trigger level is
limited in a way so that always a hysteresis for stable trigger conditions is available.
SCPI command:
TRIGger<m>:LEVel<n>[:VALue] on page 455
Range
Selects how the range of an interval is defined:
"Within"
Triggers on pulse intervals inside a given range. The range is defined
by "Interv. width" and "±Delta".
"Outside"
Triggers on intervals outside a given range. The range definition is the
same as for "Within" range.
"Shorter"
Triggers on intervals shorter than the given "Interv. width".
"Longer"
Triggers on intervals longer than the given "Interv. width".
SCPI command:
