Trigger modes
Using the various trigger modes, your GEN5i data acquisition system is
expanded to an extremely versatile transient recorder. The trigger circuits may
be configured to trigger on many types of phenomena. In this section the
different trigger modes and their extensions are discussed in detail.
10.3.1
Basic trigger mode
The basic trigger mode can be compared with the trigger mode available when
using an analog trigger detector, for example as found on a classic scope.
