State
Activates the configuration.
With "State = Off", the instrument works in a standalone mode.
Remote command:
:SCONfiguration:MULTiinstrument:STATe on page 833
Multi Instrument Trigger
Sets the mode in that the instrument works.
To activate the mode, set "Multi Instrument > State = On".
"Master"
Provides its trigger signal to the slaves
"Slave"
Synchronizes to the supplied trigger signal from the master.
Observe the "Synchronisation State" indication for information if the
synchronization signal is found and synchronization is achieved.
Remote command:
:SCONfiguration:MULTiinstrument:MODE on page 833
Synchronisation State
If "Multi Instrument Trigger = Slave", indicates if synchronization is achieved.
"Sync"
Instrument is in sync.
It receives and decodes the synchronization and the trigger signal
from the master instrument.
"No Sync"
Synchronization is not achieved, because:
●
The baseband generators in the slaves or in the master instru-
ments are not activated, see "To start signal generation"
on page 613.
●
There is no physical connection (the synchronization signal is not
connected as required).
For details, see Chapter 9.3.1.2, "How to Connect and Configure
Instruments in Master-Slave Mode", on page 611.
●
The slave instrument does not detect the synchronization signal.
Remote command:
:SCONfiguration:MULTiinstrument:TRIGger:SYNChronization?
on page 834
Global Connector Settings
Provides a quick access to the related global connector settings.
With "State = On", the synchronization signal is assigned per default as follows:
●
"Multi Instrument Trigger > Master"
"Connector = USER 6": "Direction = Output", "Signal = Baseband Sync Out"
●
"Multi Instrument Trigger > Slave"
