36 System Overview
Output Connectors
Power meters in the 1936/2936-R series support one analog output for each
channel. Analog output enables direct monitoring of a detector through an
oscilloscope or voltmeter.
On the rear panel there are also trigger outputs, one for each channel. The
user can use these outputs to synchronize external equipment with events
related to the power meter measurements.
