sec. This message goes away when a trigger signal appears.

Video (IF Envelope)

Pressing this key, when it is not selected, selects the video signal as the trigger. The Video trigger
condition is met when the video signal (the filtered and detected version of the input signal,
including both RBW and VBW filtering) crosses the video trigger level.

When the detector selected for all active traces is the average detector, the video signal for triggering
does not include any VBW filtering.

The video trigger level is shown as a labeled line on the display. The line is displayed as long as
video is the selected trigger source.

Pressing this key, when it is already selected, accesses the video trigger setup functions.

Status Bits/OPC
dependencies

The Status Operation Register bit 5 "Waiting for Trigger" is set at the same time as the Sweeping
or Measuring bit is set. It is cleared when the trigger actually occurs (that is, after the trigger
event occurs and all the applicable trigger criteria have been met). A corresponding pop-up
message ("Waiting for trigger") is generated if no trigger signal appears after approximately 2
sec. This message goes away when a trigger signal appears.

Backwards Compatibility
Notes

In the past, the Average detector was not available when Video triggering was on, and

consequently, functions that set the detector to average (such as Marker Noise or Band/Intvl
Power) were not available when the video trigger was on. Similarly, Video triggering was not
available when the detector was Average.  In the X-Series, these restrictions are removed.
