PXI Trigger Bus
Measurement and switching modules can be synchronized with the PXI trigger bus.
The external output of the signals is provided by the system module.
The following signals are available
●
Trigger bus with 8 lines
(PXI_TRIG0 ...7)
4.5.4
External Cabling
External cabling is used to connect measuring and stimuli devices as well as the UUT
to the R&S TS-PWA3.
Implementing the following concept should ensure the clarity of external cabling
design:
●
The cabling to UUT is at the front of the R&S TS-PWA3.
The UUT adapter is located here; an adapter interface can also be flange mounted
if required.
●
The cabling to measuring and stimuli devices is at the rear of the TSVP.
System and user-specific terminals and plug and socket connectors can be fitted in
the back for this purpose (see
).
This concept ensures a high degree of clarity, rapid adaption to different test tasks and
allows the simple replacement of plug-in modules.
