4.4.17 TRIGGER
Many Model 395 operations require the setup
of
trigger parameters. The Madel 395
provides a Trigger Input screen which allows you to select internai source (programmable
rate), externaI source (Trig In connector) with programmable trigger slope and polarity,
or manual source
(MAN TRIG key). Model395 operations are affected by the trigger
input conditions are sequence advance trigger, triggered sweep, and triggered and gated
modes.
In the gated mode, the Madel 395 produces a continuous output with external trigger
selected and slope set ta negative as long as the quiescent external triggerJnput is below
the trigger level.
To set up the trigger input, press the TRIG IN key to display the Trigger Input screen
(figure 4-110).

Press

to
toggle
between
internaI, external,
and
manual
trigger
sources.
When
"internaI" is selected, the Model 395 uses its internaI trigger generator as the trigger
source. Trigger rate is programmed using "period." Siope and Ievei have no affect
on
internaI trigger. However, when internally triggered, the waveform can be triggered by
pressing
MAN
TRIG
key
or
sending remote trigger commands (*TRG etc. - refer
ta
section 5).
When "external" is selected, a signal at the Trig
In
connectortriggers the generator. The
trigger slope and
Ieve1
parameters affect the trigger conditions for the externai signal.
When externally triggered, the wavefarm can also he triggered by pressing
MAN
TRIG
key
or
sending remote trigger commands (*TRG etc. refer
to
section 5).
When "manual" is selected, pressing the
MAN
TRIG
key
or
sending remote trigger
commands (*TRG etc. refer to section 5) triggers the waveform.
Siope
Press F2 to toggle between positive trigger siope and negative trigger slope. Siope sets
the triggering edge
of
the externai trigger signal.
Level
Press F3 to program the trigger Ievel. Use the keypad
or
the knob to change the value.
The trigger Ievel can
he
programmed hetween -10.0 V and +10.0 V with
0.1
V resolution.
Period
Press
F4
to program the triggerrate
of
the internal trigger generator. Use the keypad or
knob to change the value. Trigger rate can be programmed between
200
ns and 10000
seconds.
