External Triggering
In the external trigger mode, the function generator will accept a hardware trigger
applied to the rear-panel Trig In connector. The function generator initiates one
sweep or outputs one burst each time Trig In receives a TTL pulse with the
specified edge.
See also “Trigger Input Signal” on the following page.
– Front-Panel Operation: The external trigger mode is like the manual
trigger
mode except that you apply the trigger to the
Trig In connector . To select the
external source, press the Trigger Setup softkey and then select the Source
Ext softkey.
To specify whether the function generator triggers on the rising or falling edge,
press the Trigger Setup softkey and then select the desired edge by pressing
the Slope softkey.
– Remote Interface Operation:
TRIGger:SOURce EXTernal
Use the following command to specify whether the function generator triggers
on the rising or falling edge.
TRIGger:SLOPe {POSitive|NEGative}
Manual Triggering
In the manual trigger mode (front panel only), you can manually trigger the
function generator by pressing the front-panel key. The function generator
initiates one sweep or outputs one burst for each time you press the key. The
key is illuminated while the function generator is waiting for a manual
trigger (the key is disabled when in remote).
