External TTL trigger

Trigger modes and appendant registers

 

 

Positive and negative TTL trigger

This mode is for detecting the rising and falling edges of an ex- ternal TTL signal. The board will trigger on the first rising or falling edge that is detected after starting the board. The next triggere- vent will then be detected, if the actual recording/replay has fin- ished and the board is armed and waiting for a trigger again.

SPC_TRIGGERMODE

r/w

Sets the triggermode for the board.

 

TM_TTLBOTH

20030

Sets the trigger mode for external TTL trigger to detect positive and negative edges.

Pulsewidth triggers

TTL pulsewidth trigger for long HIGH pulses

This mode is for detecting HIGH pulses of an external TTL signal that are longer than a programmed pulsewidth. If the pulse is shorter than the programmed pulsewidth, no trigger will be de- tected. The board will trigger on the first pulse matching the trig- ger condition after starting the board. The next triggerevent will then be detected, if the actual recording/replay has finished and the board is armed and waiting for a trigger again.

TM_TTLHIGH_LP

20001

Sets the trigger mode for external TTL trigger to detect HIGH pulses that are longer than a programmed pulsewidth.

TTL pulsewidth trigger for short HIGH pulses

This mode is for detecting HIGH pulses of an external TTL signal that are shorter than a programmed pulsewidth. If the pulse is longer than the programmed pulsewidth, no trigger will be detect- ed. The board will trigger on the first pulse matching the trigger condition after starting the board. The next triggerevent will then be detected, if the actual recording/replay has finished and the board is armed and waiting for a trigger again.
