Hantek1025G By selecting one pin, that digital output pin will output high level. Otherwise, the pin will output low level. 3. Digital Input Select menu “Digital IO”->”Digital Input”, the following dialog show. If you input a high level to a digital input pin, the pin on the dialog would show H; otherwise, the pin on the dialog would show L.
Open: Select menu “Utility” -> “Open output power on”. Then the current waveform will be saved to hardware. And the waveform will be generated every time when you connect the Hantek 1025G to power. The Hantek 1025G is powered by USB.
Hantek1025G 3.8 Synchronized output If you generate a waveform by software, there is a synchronized signal output from “SYNC” terminal. The signal is square waveform, the frequency of which is equal to the waveform you generated. For example, if you generated a 1 KHz, sine waveform, you will also generate an 1 KHz, square waveform simultaneously.
Hantek1025G 3.9 External Trigger Input Also, you can use the external trigger input to control the Hantek 1025G. For example, the instrument generated a waveform, and you got a waveform on oscilloscope. Then, click the “Ext Trig” button on the interface of the software. The waveform on the oscillograph disappeared.
Page 31
Click the “Ext Trig Mode “to switch the external trigger mode between “Fall” and “Rise”. Select the Fall mode as example. Input a signal which has fall edges to the “TRIGIN” pin terminal. When the Hantek 1025G gets to the fall edge of the external signal, it begins to generate waveform.
