Series N6700 User’s Guide
BUS
GPIB device trigger, *TRG, or <GET> (Group Execute Trigger).
PIN<pin>
Selects an output port connector pin. Pins 1 – 3 can be configured as external
trigger sources. The [SOURce:]DIGital:PIN<n>:FUNCtion command programs
the function of each pin. The [SOURce:]DIGital:PIN<n>:POLarity command
programs the polarity of each pin.
TRANsient<chan>
Selects the transient system of one of the output channels as the external
trigger source. The following commands are used to generate triggers from the
transient system: [SOURce:]STEP:TOUTput, [SOURce:]LIST:TOUTput:BOSTep,
and [SOURce:]LIST:TOUTput:EOSTep.
The *RST value = BUS.
TRIGger:TRANsient[:IMMediate], (@<chanlist>)
This command generates an immediate transient trigger regardless of
the selected trigger source. Output triggers affect the following
functions: voltage, current, and current limit. You must initiate the
output trigger system before you can send any triggers.
When sent, the output trigger will:
Initiate an output change as specified by the Current Triggered or
Voltage Triggered commands.
Clears the WTG-tran bit in the Status Operation Condition
register after the transient trigger sequence has completed.
TRIGger:TRANsient:SOURce {BUS|PIN<pin>|TRANsient<chan>}, (@<chanlist>)
TRIGger:TRANsient:SOURce?
This command selects the trigger source for the output trigger
system. The following trigger sources can be selected:
BUS
GPIB device trigger, *TRG, or <GET> (Group Execute Trigger).
PIN<pin>
Selects an output port connector pin. Pins 1 – 3 can be configured as external
trigger sources. The [SOURce:]DIGital:PIN<n>:FUNCtion command programs
the function of each pin. The [SOURce:]DIGital:PIN<n>:POLarity command
programs the polarity of each pin.
TRANsient<chan>
Selects the transient system of one of the output channels as the trigger
source. The following commands are used to generate triggers from the
transient system: [SOURce:]STEP:TOUTput, [SOURce:]LIST:TOUTput:BOSTep,
and [SOURce:]LIST:TOUTput:EOSTep.
The *RST value = BUS.
*TRG
This command generates a trigger when the trigger subsystem has
BUS selected as its source. The command has the same affect as the
Group Execute Trigger (<GET>) command.
