You can configure the function generator to output a waveform with a
specified number of cycles (2 to 1,000,000), called a burst.
The Strobe Out connector generates a rising edge at the first cycle of the
burst and a falling edge on the last cycle.
Bursts can be combined with all trigger modes. In continuous mode, the
difference between having a burst mode enabled or disabled is in the
presence or absence of the burst framing signal provided at Strobe Out. The
main and trigger output generate the same signals in both cases.
In triggered burst mode, the function generator initiates one burst per trigger
event. In gated burst mode, bursts will be generated as long as the gate
signal is active. A burst will always be finished before another one can be
started. So, the trigger rate and gate timing is limited by the product of the
number of cycles and the cycle period.
For bursts, the trigger source can be an external signal, an internal timer, the
Man key, or a command received from the remote interface.
