SYNC Synchronisation Function (GX 320 only, contd.)
Activation of signal
generation (Master)
On the master all adjustments are possible in real time because each
change in the master commands resynchronisation of all the slaves.
As this is not possible on the slaves, changing waveform, frequency
or phase are not possible when signal generation is activated. On the
other hand as amplitude and offset have no effect on synchronisation
they remain adjustable at all times.
The slave is said to be locked:
is displayed on the top right hand
corner of the slave screen(s).
In order to change the waveform, frequency or phase on the slave
you must stop signal generation on the master using its ‘MAIN OUT
ON/OFF’ key.
MAIN OUT
•
on the Master:
- Activates MAIN OUT and signal generation on all devices on which MAIN
OUT is activated.
The master key lights:
.
- Locking slaves: selecting waveform and adjusting frequency and phase are
no longer possible on the slaves.
The
symbol is dispayed on the slave screen as below:
•
on the slaves:
- Activation of the associated MAIN OUT (effective signal output is only
possible if signal generation is activated on the master).
The slave key lights:
.
MAIN OUT
•
on the Master:
- Deactivation of MAIN OUT and halting of signal generation on all devices.
The master key is turned off:
.
- The master frees the slaves: waveform selection and frequency and phase
adjustment are now possible.
The
symbol disappears from the slaves.
•
on the Slaves: the associated MAIN OUT is deactivated.
The slave key is turned off:
.
