This button lets you set the level at which the TRIG IN external trigger signal
triggers the instrument. You can set the trigger level from –5.0 V to +5.0 V.
Do the following steps to set the signal level:
1. Push SETUP (front) Trigger (bottom) Level (side).
2. Use the general purpose knob, numeric buttons, or the keyboard to adjust the
trigger level value.
This button lets you set the impedance value of the TRIG IN back-panel
connector. You can set the TRIG IN impedance to either 50
W
or 1 k
W
.
Do the following to set the TRIG IN back-panel connector input impedance:
1. Make sure that the trigger source is set to External.
2. Push SETUP (front) Trigger (bottom) Impedance (side) to toggle
between 50
W
and 1 k
W
.
The internal trigger source is a pulse generator that automatically
triggers the instrument every interval setting. This button lets you set the time
interval between trigger pulses. The time interval ranges from 1.0
µ
s to 10.0 s.
The automatic trigger interval starts when RUN is pressed.
Do the following steps to set the trigger interval:
1. Push SETUP (front) Trigger (bottom) Interval (side).
2. Use the general purpose knob, numeric buttons, or the keyboard to adjust the
trigger interval time.
. The FORCE TRIGGER front-panel button forces a trigger event
immediately when pressed. Forcing a trigger does not reset the start of the
automatic trigger interval. For example, if the trigger interval is set for four
seconds, and you force a trigger at 2.5 seconds after the automatic trigger signal
seconds, the next automatic trigger occurs 1.5 seconds after the force trigger.
To disable automatic triggering, push SETUP (front) Trigger (bottom)
Source (side) to External. You can then use an external trigger signal on the
TRIG IN connector or the FORCE TRIGGER front-panel button to trigger the
instrument.
