Trigger Source Description
Bus Selects a GPIB devicetrigger, *TRG, or <GET> (Group ExecuteTrigger).
IMMediate Selects the immediate trigger source. This triggers the Arb immediately when the INITiate command is sent.
EXTernal Selects the trigger input BNC connector on the rear panel. You must provide a low-true signal to the
connector.
To specify arbitrary waveforms as the output trigger response::
CURR:MODE ARB(@1)
VOLT:MODE ARB,(@1)
To select a BUS trigger source:
TRIG:ARB:SOUR BUS
To select the immediate trigger source:
TRIG:ARB:SOUR IMM
To select the rear panel trigger input BNC connector:
TRIG:ARB:SOUR EXT
Arb Triggers
For the arbitrary waveform to appear at the output terminals, the selected output must
be turned on before the Arb is run. When the arbitrary waveform runs, front panel
voltage and current controls as well as any remote voltage and current commands are
ignored until after the Arb completes.
From the front or rear panel
Depending upon the selected trigger source, you can trigger the arbitrary waveforms as follows:
Trigger Source Description
Arb Run/Stop Key Press the Arb Run/Stop key to initiate and startthe Arbs. All Arbs are triggered simultaneously. Press the
Arb Run/Stop key again to stop the Arbs.
Rear Trigger Input Providea low-true signal to the Trigger In BNC connector. Thesignal must persist for at least 2 micro-
seconds. All Arbs are triggered simultaneously.
Once configured, the instrument will wait indefinitely for the trigger signal. If the trigger does not
occur, and you wish to cancel the arbitrary waveform, press the Arb Run/Stop key to stop the Arb.
From the remote interface:
To initiate the transient trigger system:
INIT:TRAN(@1)
