External triggering
The EX TRIG key selects triggering from three external sources: trigger link, digital I/O,
and the TRIG key. When EX TRIG is pressed, the TRIG annunciator lights and dashes are
displayed to indicate the instrument is waiting for an external trigger. From the front panel,
press the TRIG key to trigger a single reading. Pressing the EX TRIG key again toggles
back to continuous triggers.
The Model 2790 uses two lines of the TRIG LINK rear panel connector as External Trig-
ger (EXT TRIG) input and Voltmeter Complete (VMC) output. The EXT TRIG line
allows the Model 2790 to be triggered by other instruments. The VMC line allows the
Model 2790 to trigger other instruments.
Line 1 is configured as VMC and line 2 as EXT TRIG. The connector pinout is shown in
