Event blenders
The ability to combine trigger events is called event blending. You can use an event blender to wait
for up to four input trigger events to occur before responding with an output event.
The Model 2461 has 1 or 2 event blenders that you can program.
Event blender operations
You can use event blenders to perform logical AND or logical OR operations on trigger events. For
example, trigger events can be triggered when either a manual trigger or external input trigger is
detected.
When AND operation is selected, the event blender generates an event when an event is detected on
all of the assigned stimulus inputs.
When OR operation is selected, the event blender generates an event when an event is detected on
any one of the four stimulus inputs.
You set the event blender operation using remote commands.
Using SCPI commands:
Send the command
:TRIGger:BLENder<n>:MODE
.
Set the command to
OR
or
AND
.
Using TSP commands:
Send the command
trigger.blender[
N
].orenable
.
Setting the command to
true
enables OR operation; setting it to
false
enables AND operation.
