Comments | ∙ Enabling the Trigger Source: The TRIGger:SOURce command |
only selects the trigger source. The INITiate[:IMMediate] command enables the trigger source.
∙Using the TRIG Command: You can use TRIGger[:IMMediate] to advance the scan when TRIGger:SOURce BUS or TRIGger:SOURce HOLD is selected.
∙Using Digital Bus Trigger: TRIGger:SOURce DBUS selects the digital bus on the multiplexer as the trigger. Any open collector TTL trigger source can be wired to the "Channel Advance" lead. A
∙Using External Trigger Inputs: With TRIGger:SOURce EXTernal selected, only one switchbox at a time can use the external trigger input at the HP E1300A/E1301A Mainframe’s "Event In" port. The trigger input is assigned to the first switchbox requesting the external trigger source.
∙Assigning External Trigger: A switchbox assigned withTRIG:SOUR EXT remains assigned to that source until the switchbox receives a command to change the source. When the source is changed, the external trigger source is available to another switchbox (with a TRIGger:SOURce EXTernal command). Another switchbox cannot receive an external trigger source if the source is already assigned, or an error is generated.
∙Using Bus Triggers: To trigger the switchbox with
TRIGger:SOURce BUS selected, use TRIGger[:IMMediate], the IEEE 488.2 common command *TRG or the
