Details Of The Triggering Subsystem - Fluke 8588A Operator's Manual

Reference Multimeter and 8 ½ Digit Multimeter
Triggering Measurements
The Continuous ON/OFF setting in the Initiate layer determines whether the
cycle repeats after flowing through Arm2, Arm1 and Trigger; or that it is single-
shot measurement. With the exception of the Digitize function, which does not
have the Continuous setting, the  key can control this behavior. The
Initiate layer can also be manipulated from the Trigger Setup screens under
 (Extended Settings), described later.

Details of the Triggering Subsystem

For greater control of the triggering subsystem, specify an event or multiple
events that need to occur in the other three layers, Arm2, Arm1, and Trigger.
Figure 28 shows the settable aspects of the Trigger layer: Event settings (and
qualifiers), Loop Counter, Event Counter, Delay, and Holdoff timer. Layers Arm2
and Arm1 are very similar to Figure 28 with the exception of Holdoff, which is
available in the Trigger layer only.
