Autotrigger
:INPut:AUTO?
If auto is on, the counter automatically controls the trigger level
1
and the hyster
-
esis. If you have a stable amplitude, use the :AUTO ONCE, and auto will determine
the trigger level once, and then set fixed levels.
Parameters
<Boolean> = ( 1/ON | 0/OFF )
ONCE means that AUTO first switches ON to check the signal. After determining suitable sen
-
sitivity and trigger level setting, it programs these values as if they where manually set.
It ends by switching off AUTO.
Using ONCE instead of AUTO ON improves measuring speed.
