baseband signal each time the "*TRG" command is sent. 
 
  External Trigger 
When "Ext" trigger mode is selected, the RF signal generator receives 
the external trigger signal input from the [TRIGGER IN] connector 
(as shown in the figure below) at the rear panel. The instrument will 
output the baseband signal each time a TTL pulse signal with the 
specified polarity is received. 
 
 
 
2)  Operation Mode 
Select the operation mode after the I/Q modulation baseband signal is 
triggered. 
 
Press Opt Mode to select "Retrig", "Arm Auto", "Arm Retrig" or "Single". 
 
Note: When "Auto" trigger mode is selected, this menu is grayed out and 
disabled. 
 
  Retrigger 
When the "Retrig" mode is selected, the instrument outputs the 
baseband signal continuously and restarts to output the signal each 
time a trigger is received. 
 
  Arm Auto 
When the "Arm Auto" mode is selected, the instrument starts 
outputting the signal continuously each time a trigger is received until 
"Arm ARB" is selected and then waits for the next trigger. 
 
  Arm Retrigger 
When the "Arm Retrig" mode is selected, the instrument starts 
outputting the signal continuously each time a trigger is received; the 
instrument restarts outputting the signal when another trigger is 
received until "Arm ARB" is selected and then waits for the next 
trigger. 
 
  Single 
When the "Single" mode is selected, the instrument outputs the 
specified length (specified in "Duration") of waveform each time a 
trigger is received and then stops to wait for the next trigger.
