Triggering
Applies to sweep and burst only. You can issue triggers for sweeps or
bursts using
internal
triggering,
external
triggering, or
manual
triggering.
– Internal or “automatic” triggering is enabled when you turn on the function
generator. In this mode, the function generator outputs continuously when the
sweep or burst mode is selected.
– External triggering uses the rear-panel Trig In connector to control the sweep
or burst. The function generator initiates one sweep or outputs one burst each
time Trig In receives a TTL pulse. You can select whether the function
generator triggers on the rising or falling edge of the external trigger signal.
– Manual triggering initiates one sweep or outputs one burst each time you
press from the front-panel. Continue pressing this key to
re-trigger the function generator.
– The key is disabled when in remote and when a function other than burst
or sweep is currently selected.
Trigger Source Choices
Applies to sweep and burst only. You must specify the source from which the
function generator will accept a trigger.
– Sweep trigger source: Internal, External, or Manual. The default is Internal.
– The function generator will accept a manual trigger, a hardware trigger from
the rear-panel Trig In connector, or continuously output sweeps or bursts
using an internal trigger. At power-on, internal trigger is selected.
