Extended Trigger Configuration
This section includes information for advanced users about how to
customize your use of the trigger system.
You can configure the ouputs and inputs from two nodes, Node A and
Node B. See Figure 7 on page 180 for more information on Node A and
Node B. You can configure these nodes to be triggered by certain events
and for these nodes to trigger particular actions.
command:
:TRIGger
syntax: :TRIGger<wsp>NODEA|1|NODEB|2
description: Generates a hardware trigger.
parameters: 1 or NODEA:
2 or NODEB:
Generates trigger at Node A.
Generates trigger at Node B.
Use “:TRIGger:CONFiguration:EXTended” on page 179 to configure Node A and Node B.
NOTE
“:TRIGger” on page 172 describes the :TRIGger command for basic users.
