Example
:TRIG:BLOC:BRAN:EVEN 6, DISP, 2
When the trigger model reaches this block, if the front-panel TRIGGER key has been pressed, the trigger
model returns to block 2. If the TRIGGER key has not been pressed, the trigger model continues to block 7
(the next block in the trigger model).

On event block (on page 3-118)
:TRIGger:BLOCk:BRANch:LIMit:CONStant
This command defines a trigger model block that goes to a specified block if a measurement meets preset criteria.

Usage
:TRIGger:BLOCk:BRANch:LIMit:CONStant <blockNumber>, <limitType>, <limitA>,
<limitB>, <branchToBlock>
:TRIGger:BLOCk:BRANch:LIMit:CONStant <blockNumber>, <limitType>, <limitA>,
<limitB>, <branchToBlock>, <measureBlock>
<blockNumber>
The sequence of the block in the trigger model
<limitType>
The type of limit (ABOVe, BELow, INside, or OUTside)
<limitA>
The limit that the measurement is tested against; if limitType is set to:
• ABOVe: This value is ignored
• BELow: The measurement must be below this value
• INside: The low limit that the measurement is compared against
•
OUTside: The low limit that the measurement is compared against
<limitB>
The upper limit that the measurement is tested against; if
limitType
is set to:
• ABOVe: The measurement must be above this value
• BELow: This value is ignored
• INside: The high limit that the measurement is compared against
•
OUTside
: The high limit that the measurement is compared against
<branchToBlock>
The block number of the trigger model block to execute when the measurement
meets the defined criteria
<measureBlock>
The block number of the measure or digitize block that makes the measurements to
be compared; if this is 0 or undefined, the trigger model uses the previous measure
or digitize block
Details
The branch-on-constant-limits block goes to a branching block if a measurement meets the criteria
set by this command.
The type of limit can be:
• Above: The measurement is above the value set by limit B; limit A must be set, but is ignored
when this type is selected
• Below: The measurement is below the value set by limit A; limit B must be set, but is ignored
when this type is selected
