Operating Manual 1407.6062.32 ─ 08
Arm - Digital Modulation
Stops signal generation. This button appears only with "Running" signal generation in the
"Armed_Auto" and "Armed_Retrigger" trigger modes.
Signal generation can be restarted by a new trigger (internally with "Execute
Trigger" or
externally).
SCPI command:
Execute Trigger - Digital Modulation
Executes trigger manually. A manual trigger can be executed only when an internal trig-
ger source and a trigger mode other than "Auto" have been selected.
SCPI command:
Trigger Source - Digital Modulation
Selects trigger source.
"Internal"
The trigger event is executed by "Execute
Trigger". As a precondition
a trigger mode other than "Auto" must be selected.
"External
(TRIGGER)"
The trigger event is executed with the aid of the active edge of an exter-
nal trigger signal. The trigger signal is supplied via the TRIGGER con-
nector.
The polarity, the trigger threshold and the input impedance of the TRIG-
GER input can be set in the GLOBAL TRIGGER SETTINGS menu.
SCPI command:
Sync. Output to External Trigger
(enabled for "Trigger Source" External)
Enables/disables output of the signal synchronous to the external trigger event.
For or two or more R&S SMBVs configured to work in a master-slave mode for synchro-
nous signal generation, configure this parameter depending on the provided system trig-
ger event and the properties of the output signal. See
for an overview of the
required settings.

Application
Sync. Output to External Trigger
Common External Trigger event
All instruments are synchronous to
the external trigger event
ON
for the master and the slave instru-
ments
All instruments are synchronous
among themselves but starting the
signal from first symbol is more
important than synchronicity with
external trigger event
OFF
Internal trigger signal of the master
R&S SMBV for the slave instru-
ments
All instruments are synchronous
among themselves
