Syntax [:SOURce]:PULM:TRIGger:MODE AUTO|EXTernal|EGATe|KEY|BUS
[:SOURce]:PULM:TRIGger:MODE?
Description Set the trigger mode of pulse modulation.
Query the trigger mode of pulse modulation.

AUTO
Explanation  AUTO: select "Auto" trigger mode. At this point, the RF signal generator meets
the trigger condition at any time and can perform pulse modulation
continuously.
 EXTernal: select "Ext Trig" mode. At this point, the RF signal generator receives
the external trigger signal input from the [PULSE IN/OUT] connector at the
rear panel. The instrument starts a pulse modulation each time a TTL pulse
with the specified polarity is received. To specify the slope of the TTL pulse,
use the [:SOURce]:PULM:TRIGger:EXTernal:SLOPe command to select the
"Pos" or "Neg".
 EGATe: select "Ext Gate" mode. At this point, the RF signal generator receives
the external gated signal input from the [PULSE IN/OUT] connector at the
rear panel. The instrument starts a pulse modulation within its valid level each
time a gated signal with the specified polarity is received. To specify the
polarity of the external gated signal, use the
[:SOURce]:PULM:TRIGger:EXTernal:GATE:POLarity command to select
"Normal" or "Inverse".
 KEY: select "Key" trigger mode. At this point, the instrument starts a pulse
modulation each time Trigger at the front panel is pressed.
 BUS: select "Bus" trigger mode. At this point, the instrument starts a plse
modulation each time the *TRG or :TRIGger:PULSe[:IMMediate] command is
sent.
 This command is invalid when "Ext" modulation source is selected.
Return Format The query returns the trigger mode of pulse modulation, for example, EGAT.
