Demonstration
To set up the instrument to source a current/voltage sinusoid waveform when the
B2961A/62A receives an external trigger signal, perform the following procedure
to configure the Trigger Parameters.
Figure 3 shows the timing diagram for a sinusoid waveform when the instrument
receives an external trigger signal.

Figure 4 shows the external trigger signal requirements to initiate device action on the
B2961A/62A. Positive or negative logic can be used.

B2961A/62A receives an external trigger signal
Objective
Some applications require the
synchronization of the B2961A/62A’s
current/voltage sinusoid waveform
output with other instruments.
This demo shows how to configure
the B2961A/62A to source wave-
forms when it receives an external
trigger signal.
