Operating Basics
To generate a triggered
burst waveform
The instrument provides the following three trigger sources for Burst mode:
Internal or external trigger signal
Manual trigger
Remote command
The following example describes how to generate a double pulse using the burst
mode.
1.
Select Pulse as an
output waveform
and then push the
front-panel Burst
button.
2.
Con
fi
rm that 1-Cycle,
N-Cycles, or Inf-Cycles
is selected, which
means triggered burst
mode is enabled.
To generate double
pulse, set the burst
count (N-Cycles) to
2 by pushing the
N-Cycles bezel button
and then pushing the 2
button.
3.
This is an example of
double pulse.
4.
This waveform is a
trigger output signal.
To generate a gated burst
waveform
In the gated burst mode, the output is enabled or disabled based on the internal
gate signal or an external signal applied to the front-panel Trigger Input connector.
While the gate signal is true or the front-panel Manual Trigger button is pushed
in, the instrument outputs a continuous waveform.
NOTE.
Once Gate is selected, burst count parameters are ignored.
