Using The Instrument 3-17
connector generates signals which are triggered by signals selected using the
SYNC:SOUR command. In the OFF position, the SYNC connector has no
output. It is connected electrically to internal circuitry at all times. Ensure that
voltage is
not
applied to the SYNC outputs connector at any time. The default
SYNC position is the 6th point from the end of the waveform. The position of
the SYNC signal can be programmed using the OUTPUT:SYNC:POS:POIN
command.
The query:
OUTPut:SYNC?
queries the state of the SYNC OUTPUT and returns "0" (OFF) or "1" (ON).
Assigning the
Source For The
SYNC Output
The SYNC output generates a synchronized signal at the beginning of the
waveform or at any position on the waveform as may be programmed by the
OUTP:SYNC:POS command. The validation source for this command is
selectable from a number of options. Use the following command to select the
source for validating the SYNC output:
OUTPut:SYNC:SOURce {BIT | LCOMplete | SSYNc}
BIT
Generates a sync signal every time the segment is output in
User mode and in Sequenced mode. The sync position along the waveform
can be programmed using the OUTPUT:SYNC:POS command. The BIT
signal is recommended for use in continuous mode.
LCOMplete
Generates a sync signal in SEQ 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
OUTPUT:SYNC:POS command. The LCOM signal is recommended for use
in Sequenced mode.
SSYNc
Generates a sync signal at intervals that are synchronized
with the internal clock generator. This option is useful for minimizing jitter
when using an oscilloscope. The SSYNc signal is recommended for use in
Triggered mode.
The query:
OUTPut:SYNC:SOURce?
queries the signal source for the SYNC output and returns BIT, LCOM or
SSYN.
Selecting the SYNC
Position
The SYNC output can be programmed to output the SYNC signal at any point
along the output waveform. This function is available in USER and SEQ modes
only. Use the following command to select the SYNC output position:
