Trigger Parameters
The B2961A/B2962A supports the following trigger types for triggering source
output and measurement. They are effective for setting triggers easily.
The trigger type can be selected by using the assist keys displayed when the field
pointer is in the EDIT (green) status on the Trigger field. See Table 4-1 for the
trigger types and the setup parameters.
AUTO Automatic trigger type
SYNC Synchronize trigger type
TIMER Timer trigger type
MANUAL Manual trigger type
The following setup parameters are available for setting the source output trigger
(transient action) by using the Source column, and the measurement trigger (acquire
action) by using the Measure column.
Count Trigger count (number of triggers), 1 to 100000 or INF.
(infinity). This value is automatically set for the AUTO trigger
type. For the other trigger type, set the number of triggers
required for each source output and measurement properly. For
example, set Source Count = Measure Count = 10 for the sweep
measurement with 10 steps.
Delay Sets the trigger delay time.
Period Sets the trigger period.
Trigger Selects the trigger source by using the assist key AUTO, BUS,
TIMER, INTm (only for 2-channel model), LAN, or EXTn,
where m is the integer 1 or 2, and n is an integer from between 1
and 14. See Table 4-1 for the trigger sources.
When the field pointer is in the EDIT (green) status on the Delay or Period field, the
assist keys are changed to the unit keys as shown below.
