tsplink.trigger[N].overrun
Replace N with the number of the synchronization line: 1-3
Attribute Indicates if the event detector ignored an event while in the detected state.
TSP-Link
accessibility
This attribute can be accessed from a remote TSP-Link node.
Usage overrun = tsplink.trigger[n].overrun
n The trigger line number.
overrun The trigger overrun state.
Remarks • A read-only attribute.
• Indicates an event was ignored because the event detector was in the detected state when the
event was detected.
• Indicates the overrun state of the event detector built into the line itself.
• It does not indicate whether an overrun occurred in any other part of the trigger model or in any
other detector that is monitoring the event.
• It does not indicate output trigger overrun. Output trigger overrun indications are provided in the
status model.
tsplink.trigger[N].pulsewidth
Replace N with the number of the synchronization line: 1-3.
Attribute The length of time that the trigger line will be asserted for output triggers.
Default 10e-6
TSP-Link
accessibility
This attribute can be accessed from a remote TSP-Link node.
Usage width = tsplink.trigger[n].pulsewidth -- Reads pulse width.
tsplink.trigger[n].pulsewidth = width -- Writes pulse width.
width The pulse width (in seconds).
n The trigger line number.
Remarks • Setting the pulse width to 0 (seconds) asserts the trigger indefinitely.
• The default pulsewidth time is 10µs.
Details See Trigger configuration on hardware lines in Section 10.
Also see tsplink.trigger[N].release
Example Sets pulse width for trigger line 3 to 20µs:
tsplink.trigger[3].pulsewidth = 20e-6
tsplink.trigger[N].release
Replace N with the number of the synchronization line: 1-3.
Function Releases an indefinite length or latched trigger.
TSP-Link
accessibility
This function can be accessed from a remote TSP-Link node.
Usage tsplink.trigger[n].release()
n The trigger line number.
Remarks Releases a trigger that was asserted with an indefinite pulse width, as well as a trigger that was
latched in response to receiving a synchronous mode trigger.
Details See Interactive triggering in Section 10.
Also see tsplink.trigger[N].pulsewidth
Example Releases trigger line 3:
tsplink.trigger[3].release()
