PguTrigger8110 user module
This user module specifies number of pulses to output and triggers the start of the pulse output process.
Usage
status = PguTrigger8110(char *InstIdStr, double Count);
status
Returned values are placed in the Analyze sheet:
▪ 0: OK
▪ -10000 (INVAL_INST_ID): The specified instrument ID does not exist
▪ -10040 (HP8110_NOT_IN_KCON): No PGU was found in the system configuration
▪ -10041 (HP8110_NOT_INITED): The PGU was never initialized
▪ -10042 (HP8110_PULSE_ERROR): There was an error during pulsing
▪ -10090 (GPIB_ERROR_OCCURRED): A GPIB communications error occurred
▪ -10091 (GPIB_TIMEOUT): A timeout occurred during communications
▪ -10100 (INVAL_PARAM): An invalid input parameter is specified
InstIDStr
The PGU (pulse generator) instrument ID: PGUX, where X is a number from 1 through 8
(configuration dependent); the PGU instrument ID effectively corresponds to a single pulse
generator channel
Count
The number of pulses to output; if Count is > 1, a burst of pulses with a period as defined
in the PguSetup8110 function is output; if Count is 1, a single pulse is output
Details
The PguTrigger8110 function triggers the pulse (or pulses) defined using the PguSetup8110
function.
