You cannot change the output impedance in EDGE function.
TD PULSE Press once to turn the Tunnel Diode Pulser drive signal on, again to turn
the Pulser drive off. This signal sources up to 100 V p-p to drive a Tunnel Diode
Pulser (Fluke Part Number 606522 or equivalent.)
TRIG If you are using the external trigger, use this key to toggle the trigger off and
on. When on, the reading will show "/1" which indicates that the external trigger is at
the same frequency as the edge output. If you have the 5-channel option, you must
select which connector to use for the external trigger and the channel connector for
the output. For details, refer to "The TRIG (Trigger) Menu" below. The external
trigger can be useful for many oscilloscopes that have difficulty triggering on low
amplitude signals.
MODE Indicates you are in "edge" mode. Use the softkey to change modes and
open menus for other oscilloscope calibration modes.
