:TRIGger:RS232:WIDTh 
Syntax 
:TRIGger:RS232:WIDTh <width> 
:TRIGger:RS232:WIDTh? 
Description 
Sets or queries the data width of RS232 trigger when the trigger condition is 
"Data". 
Parameter 
Name 
Type 
Range 
Default 
<width> 
Discrete 
{5|6|7|8} 
8 
Return Format 
The query returns 5, 6, 7, or 8. 
Example 
:TRIGger:RS232:WIDTh 6        /*Sets the data width to 6.*/ 
:TRIGger:RS232:WIDTh?        /*The query returns 6.*/ 
:TRIGger:RS232:BAUD 
Syntax 
:TRIGger:RS232:BAUD <baud> 
:TRIGger:RS232:BAUD? 
Description 
Sets or queries the baud rate of RS232 trigger. The default unit is bps. 
Parameter 
Name 
Type 
Range 
Default 
<baud> 
Integer 
1 bps to 20 Mbps 
9600 bps 
Remarks 
If the baud rate is set to a value with "M", then "A" should be added at the end of 
the value. For example, if you send 5 M, you need to send 5 MA. 
Return Format 
The query returns an integer ranging from 1 bps to 20 Mbps. 
Example 
:TRIGger:RS232:BAUD 4800        /*Sets the baud rate to 4800bps.*/ 
:TRIGger:RS232:BAUD?                /*The query returns 4800.*/ 
:TRIGger:RS232:LEVel 
Syntax 
:TRIGger:RS232:LEVel <level> 
:TRIGger:RS232:LEVel? 
Description 
Sets or queries the trigger level of RS232 trigger. The unit is the same as that of the 
current amplitude. 
Parameter 
Name 
Type 
Range 
Default 
<level> 
Real 
(-5 ×  VerticalScale - OFFSet) to   
(5 ×  VerticalScale - OFFSet) 
0 V 
Remarks 
For VerticalScale, refer to the :CHANnel<n>:SCALe command; for OFFSet, refer to 
the :CHANnel<n>:OFFSet command. 
Return 
Format 
The query returns the trigger level in scientific notation. 
Example 
:TRIGger:RS232:LEVel 0.16        /*Sets the trigger level to 160 mV.*/ 
:TRIGger:RS232:LEVel?              /*The query returns 1.600000E-1.*/
