Output characteristics:
•
When the trigger is asserted, it generates a low pulse that is similar to the falling edge trigger mode.

Understanding synchronous triggering modes

Use the synchronous triggering modes to implement bidirectional triggering, to wait for one node, or
to wait for a collection of nodes to complete all triggered actions.
All non-Keithley instrumentation must have a trigger mode that functions similar to the SynchronousA
or SynchronousM trigger modes.
To use synchronous triggering, configure the triggering master to the SynchronousM trigger mode or
the non-Keithley equivalent. Configure all other nodes in the test system to SynchronousA trigger
mode or a non-Keithley equivalent.
