Comments Enabling “Trig Out” Port: When enabled, a pulse is output from the “ Trig Out” port after each scanned switchbox channel is closed. If disabled, a pulse is not output from the port after channel closures. The output pulse is a +5 V negative-going pulse.

“Trig Out” Port Shared by Switchboxes: When enabled, the “ Trig Out” port is pulsed by any switchbox each time a scanned channel is closed. To disable the output for a specific switchbox, send the OUTPut[:STATe] OFF or OUTPut[:STATe] 0 command for that switchbox.
