TTL/ECL Trigger Access Commands
These TTL/ECL Trigger Access commands are described in the following sections:
•
AckTrig
•
DisTrigSense
•
EnaTrigSense
•
GetTrigHndlr
•
MapTrigTrig
•
SetTrigHndlr
•
SrcTrig
•
TrigAsstConf
•
TrigCntrConf
•
TrigExtConf
•
TrigTickConf
•
TrigToREQT
•
UMapTrigTrig
•
WaitForTrig
These commands can be used to directly manipulate the VXI TTL/ECL trigger lines and the
front panel trigger connectors of the GPIB-VXI/C. The trigger functions are grouped into the
following four categories:
•
Source trigger commands
act as a standard interface for asserting (sourcing) TTL and
ECL triggers, as well as for detecting acknowledgements from accepting devices. These
commands can source any of the VXI-defined trigger protocols from the GPIB-VXI/C.
The source trigger commands are
SrcTrig
,
SetTrigHndlr
, and
GetTrigHndlr
.
•
Acceptor trigger commands
act as a standard interface for sensing (accepting) TTL and
ECL triggers, as well as for sending acknowledgements back to the sourcing device.
These functions can sense any of the VXI-defined trigger protocols on the GPIB-VXI/C.
The acceptor trigger commands are
EnaTrigSense
,
DisTrigSense
,
SetTrigHndlr
,
and
GetTrigHndlr
.
