Details
This command turns the TTL-level trigger output pulse on or off. The pulse is used to synchronize
pulse output with the operations of an external instrument. When connected to a scope, each output
pulse of triggers a scope waveform measurement.
When output trigger is enabled, an output pulse will initiate a TTL-level, 50% duty cycle output trigger
pulse. The trigger pulses are available at the TRIGGER OUT connector of the pulse generator card.
The figure below shows the behavior of output triggers (T
the Burst mode, output triggers continue even though pulse output has stopped. For the trigger burst
mode, output triggers stop when the pulse output stops.
