Trigger initiates a single event, such as a single sweep or an instantaneous measurement, from all
instruments or an individually addressed instrument. If the HP 8340B/41B is in analog-sweep mode
TRIGGER starts the sweep; if in CW, manual sweep, or fast phaselock (code FP) mode TRIGGER
increments the frequency. When the upper frequency limit is reached (either the stop frequency for
swept modes, or maximum instrument operating frequency for CW mode) the next TRIGGER com¬
mand will initiate a retrace to the starting frequency. The syntax is
A BASIC example:
