Instructions for Operation
Step 6 When a trigger signal is received, the Step:1 waveform for each channel is output once. When the next trigger signal is re5 ceived, the Step:2 waveform is output (once). When the next trigger signal is received while waveform output is in progress, output stops after the end point of that waveform and then the waveform for the next step is output.
3. Set the trigger (gate) conditions for the external trigger (gate) source.
The external trigger (gate) signal is input from the TRIGGER INPUT connector on the front panel. The input impedance is 10 kW and the maximum input voltage is "10 V.
When an operating mode other than Cont is selected, the AWG2005 displays a side menu for selecting the trigger (gate) conditions for the external trigger (gate) source. The following describes each of these items.
Slope6 This item sets the slope for external trigger signals. To select a positive or negative slope, push the side menu Slope but5 ton. For a positive slope, the AWG2005 applies the trigger at the rising edge of the external trigger signal; for a negative slope, the trigger is applied at the falling edge of the external trigger signal.
Polarity (Gated Mode)6 This item sets the polarity for the gate that outputs the waveform or sequence based on the level of the external gate signal. To set the polarity, push the side menu Polarity button. For a positive polarity, the AWG2005 outputs the waveform or sequence waveform while the gate signal level is higher than the gate level parameter set with the side menu Level item. For negative polarity, waveform output occurs while the gate signal level is lower.
Level6 This item sets the external trigger (gate) signal level. To set this parameter push the side menu Level button, then use the nu5 meric keys or the general purpose knob to change the value. The trigger (gate) level can be set in steps of 0.14V within the range from
