Trigger input/output interface connector
As shown in the following figure, this interface in an external and auxiliary trigger input/output
interface. The specific functions are as follows:
External trigger input - After being enabled, the vector network analyzer will be triggered by the
connector signal;
External trigger ready - After being enabled, the vector network analyzer will send a
“
Ready
”
signal to the external equipment through this interface;
Auxiliary trigger input 1/2 - After being enabled, the external equipment will send an
“
OK
”
signal to the external equipment through this connector (the external equipment is ready to receive
the trigger signal);
Auxiliary trigger input 1/2 - After being enabled and before (or after) the measurement, the
vector network analyzer will send an
“
OK
”
signal through this interface.
