Level	Adjust

Identifiers

String	TrigCtl
C, C++	MC_TrigCtl
.NET	MC.TrigCtl
Numerical	513

This parameter applies to the hardware line designated by TrigLine or TrigLineIndex.

Along with TrigEdge and TrigFilter, it declares the grabber attributes of the trigger line sensed by the channel and aimed at generating the trigger event.

This parameter applies when acquisition control settings require a hardware trigger or page trigger (all acquisition modes).

Values applicable to Picolo Tymo, Picolo Alert

Name	Identifier	Description
AUTO (default)	MC_TrigCtl_AUTO	The state of the input line is automatically interpreted. Setting the InputStyle to a precise value yields better electrical performance such as better common mode rejection ratio.
RELAY	MC_TrigCtl_RELAY	A relay contact is connected to the input lines.
5V	MC_TrigCtl_5V	A 5 V TTL or CMOS driver is connected to the input lines.
12V	MC_TrigCtl_12V	A CMOS driver is connected to the input lines.
