    TETRA Release 2 Introduction 2 Introduction The R&S SMx/AMU-K68 enables you to to generate signals in accordance with the standard Terrestrial Trunked Radio Release 2 (TETRA2). To playback a signal from a waveform file created by the simulation software R&S WinIQSIM2, the corresponding R&S WinIQSIM2 digital standard option must be installed.

    TETRA Release 2 User Interface Trigger/Marker/Clock Settings The "Marker Delay" section is where a marker signal delay can be defined, either with- out restriction or restricted to the dynamic section, i.e., the section in which it is possi- ble to make settings without restarting signal and marker generation.
  • Page 31 TETRA Release 2 User Interface Trigger/Marker/Clock Settings Trigger Mode Selects trigger mode, i.e. determines the effect of a trigger event on the signal genera- tion. ● "Auto" The signal is generated continuously. ● "Retrigger" The signal is generated continuously. A trigger event (internal or external) causes a restart.
  • Page 32 TETRA Release 2 User Interface Trigger/Marker/Clock Settings The signal is not generated and the instrument waits for a trigger event. Remote command: on page 69 [:SOURce<hw>]:BB:TETRa:TRIGger:RMODe For trigger modes "Armed Auto" and "Armed Retrigger", stops the signal generation until subsequent trigger event occurs.
