You can configure the event or action that controls the onset of each
sweep through the scan list (a sweep is one pass through the scan list):
• You can set the instrument’s internal timer to automatically scan at
a specific interval as shown below. You can also program a time delay
between channels in the scan list.
• You can manually control a scan by repeatedly pressing from
the front panel.
• You can start a scan by sending a software command from the
remote interface.
• You can start a scan when an external TTL trigger pulse is received.
• You can start a scan when an alarm condition is logged on the
channel being monitored.
