Use this command to set/read the pulse frequency. Select the frequency
source for the pulse frequency using
:TRIGger:SOURce
. The currently
selected source is programmed by this command. Note that the specified
limits and available resolution depend on the selected source.
You cannot set the pulse frequency if you have selected the CLK IN
connector as the frequency source (
:TRIG:SOUR EXT
).
