The identification number of the notification; 1 to 8
Details
When trigger model execution reaches a notify block, the instrument generates a trigger event and
immediately continues to the next block.
Other commands can reference the event that the notify block generates. This assigns a stimulus
somewhere else in the system. For example, you can use the notify event as the stimulus of a
hardware trigger line, such as a digital I/O line.
When you call this event, you use the format
NOTIFY
followed by the notify identification number. For
example, if you assign
<notifyID>
as
4
, you would refer to it as
NOTIFY4
in the command that
references it.
Example
:TRIG:BLOC:NOT 5, 2
:TRIG:BLOC:BRAN:EVEN 6, NOTIFY2, 2
Define trigger model block 5 to be the notify 2
event. Assign the notify 2 event to be the trigger
for stimulus for the branch event for block 6.
