Extended Trigger Configuration Example
The short example below demonstrates how to use extended triggering
configuration to make tunable laser source modules sweep
simultaneously. Setup your mainframe with two Keysight 81689A modules
in slots 1 and 2. The example below presumes you set up identical stepped
sweeps for both modules, for example, by pressing P
RESET.

Slot 17: 0 - Node A triggers slot 17, 1 - Node B triggers slot 17
Slot 16: 0 - Node A triggers slot 16, 1 - Node B triggers slot 16
Slot 2: 0 - Node A triggers slot 2, 1 - Node B triggers slot 2
Slot 1: 0 - Node A triggers slot 1, 1 - Node B triggers slot 1
Slot 0: 0 - Node A triggers slot 0, 1 - Node B triggers slot 0
