Trigger

Sync Source

Selects a signal source for you to synchronize your periodic timer trigger to, otherwise you are
triggering at some arbitrary location in the frame. Synchronization reduces the precision
requirements on the setting of the period.

For convenience you may adjust the level and slope of the selected sync source in a conditional
branch setup menu accessed from the Sync Source menu. Note that these settings match those in
the Trigger and Gate Source menus; that is, each trigger source has only one value of level and
slope, regardless of which menu it is accessed from.

Remote Command

:TRIGger[:SEQuence]:FRAMe:SYNC EXTernal1 | EXTernal2 | RFBurst | OFF

:TRIGger[:SEQuence]:FRAMe:SYNC?

Example

TRIG:FRAM:SYNC EXT2

Dependencies

In some models, there is no second External input.  In these models, the External 2 key is
blanked and the EXTernal2 parameter will generate a “Hardware missing; Not available for this
