Using The Instrument 3-16
The query:
OUTPut:ECLTrg0?
queries the ECLTrg0 state and returns "0,0" (OFF) or "0,1" (ON).
TTLTRG lines zero through three can be used to transmit and receive trigger
signals between the Model 3162B and other VXIbus modules.
Use the following command to activate one of the four backplane TTLTRG lines:
OUTPut:TTLTrg<n> { OFF | ON}
where <n> designates the activated trigger line and 0 through 3 are available.
ON enables the selected trigger line. Note that the trigger validation source for
TTLT<n> is exactly as was set for the SYNC output.
The query:
OUTPut:TTLTrg<n>?
queries the TTLTRG<n> state and returns "<n>,0" (OFF) or "<n>,1" (ON).
Enabling the Main
Output
For safety reasons, the main output default setting is OFF. Disable or enable
the main output using the following command:
OUTPut {OFF | ON}
When the main output state is programmed to ON, the output connector is
connected to the output amplifier through a 50
Ω
resistor. In the OFF position,
the output connector is disconnected from the output amplifier by means of a
mechanical relay. Ensure that voltage is
not applied to the main output
connector when the Model 3162B output state is programmed to ON.
The query:
OUTPut?
queries the state of the main output and returns "0" (OFF) or "1" (ON).
Enabling the SYNC
Output
For safety reasons, the SYNC output default setting is OFF. Disable or enable
the SYNC output using the following command:
OUTPut:SYNC {OFF | ON}
When the SYNC output state is programmed to ON, the SYNC output
