Trigger Slope
When the trigger mode or the point trigger mode is “Ext”, you can select “Positive” or
“Negative” as the trigger type. The default trigger type is “Positive”. Click the drop-down
box to select the desired trigger edge:
⚫
Positive: A sweep is triggered when the rising edge of the external trigger signal
arrives.
⚫
Negative: A sweep is triggered when the falling edge of the external trigger signal
arrives.
Note:
The trigger edge control is displayed only when the trigger mode or point trigger
mode is “Ext”, and is hidden in other cases.
When performing a sweep operation, the order of priority that satisfies the required
conditions from high to low is: Single sweep -> trigger mode -> point trigger mode.
For example, when the “trigger mode“ and “point trigger mode” are both selected as “key”:
In the “continuous sweep”, first press the
Trigger
key to satisfy the trigger mode, and then
press the
Trigger
key again to meet the point trigger sweep mode to begin sweep. In the
“single sweep”, you need to press
Execute single sweep
first to meet the single sweep
conditions, and then press the
Trigger
key two times to meet the sweep cycle trigger and
point trigger conditions to begin sweep.
