Using The Instrument 3-15
Assigning the
Source For The
SYNC Output
The SYNC output, when enabled, can be triggered by signals
coming from a number of sources. Use the following command
to select the source for validating the SYNC output:
OUTPut:SYNC:SOURce {BIT | LCOMplete | SSYNc |
HCLock | PULSe}
BIT
Generates a narrow sync signal every time the
segment is generated. The sync position along
the waveform can be programmed using the
OUTP:SYNC:POS command. OUTP:SYNC:POS
is used to set both the TRIGger point and the
SYNC point. The BIT signal is recommended for
use in countinuous mode.
LCOMplete
Generates a sync signal in SEQuence mode
only once when the selected segment appears for
the first time in the sequence. The identity of the
segment can be programmed using the
TRAC:SEL command. The sync position along
the selected waveform can be programmed
using the OUTP:SYNC:POS command. The
LCOM signal is recommended for use in
Sequence mode.
SSYNc
Generates a sync signal at intervals that are
synchronized with the internal clock generator.
This option is useful to minimize jitter when using
an oscilloscope. The SSYNc signal is
recommended for use in Triggered mode.
HCLock
Generates a trigger signal at intervals equal to
half of the period of the sample clock. This option
is useful for synchronizing two-point waveforms
on an oscilloscope (sine and square waveforms
above 10 MHz).
PULSe
Generates a pulse each time a segment
waveform is generated. The pulse width is
specified in points using the OUTP:SYNC:WIDTh
command. This command is a useful alternative
to the BIT sync source, especially when the bit
pulse is too narrow. It is also helpful when using
the 3152A to emulate the sync pulse of another
instrument that it is replacing in a test system.
The query:
OUTPut:SYNC:SOURce?
queries the signal source for the SYNC output and returns BIT,
LCOM, SSYN, HCL or PULS.
