System – Trigger
Description
Characteristics
Trigger sources
External Direct Edge Trigger, External Precsaled Trigger, Internal Clock
Trigger, and Clock Recovery (with appropriately equipped optical
modules)
Auto/normal mode
Normal mode: wait for trigger
Auto mode: Trigger automatically generated after 100 ms time-out
Slope + or – select
Edge + mode: Triggers on positive-slewing edge
Edge – mode: Triggers on negative-slewing edge
High frequency on/off
select
High Frequency ON mode: Removes trigger hysteresis and improves
sensitivity. Should be used when trigger slew rate exceeds 1 V/ns.
High Frequency OFF mode: Retains trigger hysteresis and improves
noise rejection at low slew rates.
Metastability Reject
On/Off select
Metastability Reject On mode: Upon detection of trigger and holdoff
collision, time base will reject the sampled point.
Metastability Reject Off mode: Allows metastable points caused by
trigger/holdoff collisions to display.
Variable trigger hold
off range and resolu-
tion
Adjustable 5
m
s to 50 ms in 0.5 ns increments. When External
Prescaled Trigger mode is used, holdoff period applies to the Prescaled
circuit output.
External direct trigger
capabilities and
conditions
Direct edge triggering on signal applied to dedicated front panel
connector with Holdoff, Level Adjust, Auto/Normal, High Frequency
On/Off, and Enhanced Triggering On/Off controls.
External direct trigger specifications apply only under the condition that
no other trigger signal is applied to respective connectors.
Short term optimized mode and locked to internal 10 MHz reference
specifications only apply under the condition that there is no external
10 MHz reference applied to the front panel connector.
