Explanation The instrument triggers when the system time reaches the time specified in this
command in absolute time trigger mode (refer to the
TRIGger:SOURce command).
The instrument can also ignore some time parameters and trigger when the system
time fulfills some of the parameters. Replace the parameters to be ignored with *
when sending the comamnd. For example, to set the instrument to ignore the “Month”
and “Date” and trigger at 8:00 every day, send the TRIG:ABS *,*,8,0,0
command.
When all the parameters in the command are set to *, they will all be ingonred and the
trigger mode is similar to the auto trigger mode.
Return
Format
The query returns <mm>,<dd>,<hh>,<mm>,<ss>. For example: 01,21,08,00,00
represents 8:0:0 on January 21. The parameters to be ingorned are replaced with *. For
example, *,*,8,0,0; Monthand Dateare ignored and the instrument triggers at 8:00
every day.
Example TRIG:ABS 1,21,8,0,0
TRIG:ABS?
The query returns 01,21,08,00,00
