PguTrigger8110 user module
This user module specifies number of pulses to output and triggers the start of the pulse output
process.
Usage
status = PguTrigger8110(char *InstIdStr, double Count);
Returned values are placed in the Analyze sheet:
• 0: OK
• -10000 (INVAL_INST_ID): The specified instrument ID does not exist
• -10040 (HP8110_NOT_IN_KCON): No PGU was found in the system
configuration
• -10041 (HP8110_NOT_INITED): The PGU was never initialized
• -10042 (HP8110_PULSE_ERROR): There was an error during pulsing
• -10090 (GPIB_ERROR_OCCURRED): A GPIB communications error
occurred
• -10091 (GPIB_TIMEOUT): A timeout occurred during communications
• -10100 (INVAL_PARAM): An invalid input parameter is specified
The PGU (pulse generator) instrument ID: PGUX, where X is a number from 1
through 8 (configuration dependent); the PGU instrument ID effectively corresponds
to a single pulse generator channel
The number of pulses to output; if Count is > 1, a burst of pulses with a period as
defined in the PguSetup8110 function is output; if Count is 1, a single pulse is
Details
The PguTrigger8110 function will trigger the pulse (or pulses) defined using the PguSetup8110
function.
