DESCRIPTION
The TRIG_DELAY command sets the time at
which the trigger is to occur with respect to the
first acquired data point.
This mode is called pre-trigger acquisition, as
data are acquired before the trigger occurs.
Negative trigger delays must be given in
seconds. This mode is called post-trigger
acquisition, as the data are acquired after the
trigger has occurred.
If a value outside the range, the trigger time will
be set to the nearest limit and the VAB bit (bit 2)
will be set in the STB register. The response to
the TRIG_DELAY? query indicates the trigger
time with respect to the first acquired data point.
