From the remote interface:
Select from one of the following SCPI trigger sources:
Selects a GPIB device trigger, *TRG, or <GET> (Group Execute Trigger).
Selects the immediate trigger source. T
INITiate command is sent.
Selects the trigger input BNC connector on the rear panel. You must provide
a low-true signal to the connector
To specify arbitrary waveforms as the output trigger response::
CURR:MODE ARB(@1)
VOLT:MODE ARB(@1)
To select a BUS trigger source:
TRIG:ARB:SOUR BUS
To select the immediate trigger source:
TRIG:ARB:SOUR IMM
To select the rear panel trigger input BNC connector:
TRIG:ARB:SOUR EXT
For the arbitrary waveform to appear at the output terminals, the selected
output must be turned on before the Arb is run. When the arbitrary waveform
runs, front panel voltage and current controls as well as any remote voltage and
current commands are ignored until after the Arb completes.
From the front or rear panel
Depending upon the selected trigger source, you can trigger the
arbitrary waveforms as follows:
Trigger Source: Description:
Arb Run/Stop key
Press the Arb Run/Stop key to initiate and start the
Arbs. All Arbs are triggered simultaneously. Press the
Arb Run/Stop key again to stop the Arbs.
Rear Trigger input Provide a low-true signal to the Trigger In BNC
connector. The signal must persist for at least 2
microseconds. All Arbs are triggered simultaneously.
Once configured, the instrument will wait indefinitely for the trigger
signal. If the trigger does not occur, and you wish to cancel the
arbitrary waveform, press the Arb Run/Stop key to stop the Arb.
