, you can choose trigger source. If ‘Internal’ is chosen,
instrument will use internal trigger source, PSK rate setting is effective. If ‘External’ is chosen,
instrument will use external trigger source, PSK rate setting will be ignored. Input external trigger
signal from rear panel’s

port.
When it is PSK, you should input trigger signal from rear panel’s
《
Trig In/Out
》
port.
When it is 4PSK or nPSK, you should input two external trigger signals. As CH1 and CH2 share
one external trigger signal, and CH3 and CH4 share another external trigger signal, then CH1
and CH2 can’t be set as external trigger at the same time, nor can CH3 and CH4. When CH1 is set
to external trigger, input the lower trigger signal from rear panel’s
《

》
port of CH1 and
input the higher from
《
Trig In/Out

port of CH2. When CH2 is set to external trigger, input the
lower trigger signal from rear panel’s
《

》
port of CH2 and input the higher from
《

port of CH1, same as for CH3 and CH4.

to choose external trigger signal’s polarity. It is
only effective for external trigger.
When it is positive:
PSK setting: when trigger signal is 0, it will output carrier phase; and when trigger signal is 1, hop
phase will be output.
4PSK setting: when trigger signal is 00, it will output carrier phase.
when trigger signal is 01, it will output hop phase 1.
when trigger signal is 10, it will output hop phase 2.
when trigger signal is 11, it will output hop phase 3.
When it is negative:
PSK setting: when trigger signal is 1, it will output carrier phase; and when trigger signal is 0, hop
phase will be output.
4PSK setting: when trigger signal is 00, it will output carrier phase.
when trigger signal is 01, it will output hop phase 1.
when trigger signal is 10, it will output hop phase 2.
