Trigger Types

Trigger types specify how data output is initiated and is specified with the TriggerType property. You can think of the trigger type as the source of the trigger.

The supported trigger types for analog output objects are given in "Defining a Trigger".

The default TriggerType value is Immediate. An immediate trigger automatically occurs just after the start command is issued. If TriggerType is Manual, the trigger occurs just after you issue the trigger command. An example using a manual trigger is given on page 5-14. For some hardware, additional trigger types are available. Refer to Chapter 7, "Property Reference" for these device-specific values.
