Explanation  AUTO: select "Auto" trigger mode. If the sweep mode is set to "Cont", the
instrument will start sweeping each sweep point continuously within a sweep
period once a sweep manner is selected. If the sweep mode is set to "Single",
you need to send the
[:SOURce]:SWEep:EXECute command to meet the single
sweep condition; after that, the instrument starts to sweep and then stops after
the sweep period expires.
 KEY: select "Key" trigger mode. If the sweep mode is set to "Cont", the
instrument starts to sweep a point each time Key Trig is pressed; if the sweep
mode is set to "Single", you need to send the
[:SOURce]:SWEep:EXECute
command to meet the single sweep condition and after that, the instrument
starts to sweep a point and then stops after the sweep period expires each time
Key Trig is pressed.
 BUS: select "Bus" trigger mode. If the sweep mode is set to "Cont", the
instrument starts to sweep a point each time the
*TRG
or
:TRIGger[:SWEep][:IMMediate] command is sent; if the sweep mode is set
to "Single", you need to send the
[:SOURce]:SWEep:EXECute command to
meet the single sweep condition and after that, the instrument starts to sweep a
point and then stops after the sweep period expires each time the
*TRG
or
:TRIGger[:SWEep][:IMMediate] command is sent.
 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 set to "Cont", the instrument starts to sweep a point each time a TTL
pulse signal with the specified polarity is received. If the sweep mode is set to
"Single", you need to send the
[:SOURce]:SWEep:EXECute command to meet
the single sweep condition; after that, the instrument starts to sweep a point
and then stops after the sweep period expires each time a TTL pulse signal with
the specified polarity is received.
Note: The above descriptions are valid when the trigger mode of the
corresponding 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 point trigger mode. For example, AUTO.
