Segment Advance trigger
Sets the active trigger type to Segment Advance. If Segment Advance is already
selected as the active trigger type, pressing this control allows access to the
segment advance trigger type setup menu.
Segment Advance triggering allows you to control the playback of waveform
segments within a waveform sequence. When a trigger is received the ARB
advances to the next waveform segment within the waveform sequence. This type of
triggering ignores the repetition count for the waveform segment within the
waveform sequence. For example, if a waveform segment has a repetition count of
10 and you select single segment advance triggering mode, the waveform segment
will only play once.
Segment Advance triggering can also be used for waveform segments only. In this
situation, the same waveform segment is played again when a trigger is received.

Option Details
Parameter SCPI Notes
Single
SINGle
Once a trigger is received a segment is played once. If a trigger is received during
playback of a segment, the segment plays to completion and the next segment is
played once
Continuous
CONTinuous
Once a trigger is received a segment is played continuously. When subsequent
triggers are received, the currently playing segment plays to completion and then
the next segment is played continuously
Trigger Initiate Front panel only If "Trigger Source" on page 1988 is set to KEY, initiates an immediate trigger
event
Trigger Source
Determines how the source receives the trigger that starts the waveform playing.
Grayed-out if "Trigger Type" on page 1986 is free run, since free run triggers
immediately with no trigger source required.
