TRIGGER_LEVEL_MDO3XXX
Set the trigger voltage of a MDO3XXX oscilloscope (or queries it).The trigger voltage is the level at which an oscilloscope will find the
start of a signal.
Requires a CONNECTION_MDO3XXX block at the start of the app to connect with
the instrument. The VISA address will then be listed under 'connection'.
This block should also work with compatible Tektronix scopes (untested):
MDO4xxx, MSO4xxx, and DPO4xxx.Params:connection : VisaConnectionThe VISA address (requires the CONNECTION_MDO3XXX block).trigger_volts : floatThe voltage to set the triggering level to.query_set : strWhether to query or set the triggering voltage.Returns:out : DataContainerScalar: The triggering voltage.
