	Action	Display
1.	Press Voltage to access the Voltage Menu. On the Entry keypad, press 1 0 2 Enter.	VOLT	102
2.	Press  to access the triggered voltage command. On the Entry keypad, press 1 2 0	VOLT	120
	Enter.
3.	Access the Voltage Menu again and press  to access the voltage mode command. On	VOLT:M	PULSE
	the Entry keypad, press ↓ or ° to scroll through the mode parameters to obtain
	PULSE and press Enter.
4.	Press Pulse to access the Pulse Menu. From the Entry keypad, press	WIDTH	.0833
	. 0 8 3 3 Enter to enter a pulse width of 83.3 milliseconds.
5.	Access the Pulse Menu and press  to access the duty cycle command. From the Entry	DCYCLE	33
	keypad, press 3 3 Enter to change the duty cycle to 33%.
6.	Access the Pulse Menu and press  to access the pulse count. On the Entry keypad,	COUNT	4
	press 4 and Enter.
7.	Press Trigger Control and Enter to initiate the transient trigger sequence.	INIT:IMMED
8.	Press Shift Trigger. This sends the ac source an immediate trigger signal to generate	102 V 60 HZ
	the four output pulses.

Note: The ac source output returns to 102 V at the completion of the output pulses.

List Transient

Lists are the most flexible means of generating multiple or synchronized transient outputs. The following figure shows a voltage output generated from a list. The output shown represents three different ac voltage pulses (160 volts for 33 milliseconds, 120 volts for 83 milliseconds, and 80 volts for 150 milliseconds) separated by 67-millisecond, 0-volt intervals.

The list specifies the pulses as three voltage points (point 0, 2, and 4), each with its corresponding dwell point. The intervals are three zero-voltage points (point 1, 3, and 5) of equal intervals. The count parameter causes the list to execute twice when started by a single trigger.

NOTE: From the Output Menu, execute the *RST command to reset the ac source. This is necessary because any previously programmed functions remain in effect until cleared.
