[:SOURce]:SWEep:SWEep:TRIGger:TYPE
Syntax [:SOURce]:SWEep:SWEep:TRIGger:TYPE AUTO|KEY|BUS|EXT
[:SOURce]:SWEep:SWEep:TRIGger:TYPE?
Description Set the trigger mode of the sweep period.
Query the trigger mode of the sweep period.
Parameter Name Type Range Default
AUTO|KEY|BUS|EXT Discrete AUTO|KEY|BUS|EXT AUTO
Explanation  AUTO: select "Auto" trigger mode. If the sweep mode is set to "Cont", the
instrument will start sweeping when a sweep type is selected. If the sweep
mode is set to "Single", the instrument will start a sweep and then stop after
the [:SOURce]:SWEep:EXECute command is sent and when the single sweep
condition is met.
 KEY: select "Key" trigger mode. If the sweep mode is set to "Cont", the
instrument starts a sweep each time Trigger at the front panel is pressed. If
the sweep mode is set to "Single", the instrument starts a sweep and then stops
each time Trigger at the front panel is pressed after the
[:SOURce]:SWEep:EXECute command is sent and when the single sweep
condition is met.
 BUS: select "Bus" trigger mode. If the sweep mode is set to "Cont", the
instrument starts a sweep each time the *TRG
or :TRIGger[:SWEep][:IMMediate] command is sent. If the sweep mode is set
to "Single", the instrument starts a sweep and then stops each time the *TRG
or :TRIGger[:SWEep][:IMMediate] command is sent after the
[:SOURce]:SWEep:EXECute command is sent and when the single sweep
condition is met.
 EXT: select "Ext" trigger mode. The RF signal generator receives the trigger
signal input from the [TRIGGER IN] connector at the rear panel. If the sweep
mode is "Cont", the instrument starts a sweep each time a TTL pulse signal with
the specified polarity is received. If the sweep mode is set to "Single", the
instrument starts a sweep and then stops each time a TTL pulse signal with the
specified polarity is received after the [:SOURce]:SWEep:EXECute command is
sent and when the single sweep condition is met.
Note: The above explanations are only valid when the trigger mode of each
sweep point within the sweep period is met.
 When executing the sweep operation, the priority of the required conditions is:
single sweep  trigger mode  point trigger mode.
Return Format The query returns the trigger mode of the sweep, for example, AUTO.
Example :SWE:SWE:TRIG:TYPE AUTO
