To Trigger a Sweep or Burst
You can issue triggers from the front panel for sweeps and bursts using a
manual trigger or an internal trigger.
• Internal or “automatic” triggering is enabled with the default settings
of the function generator. In this mode, the function generator
outputs continuously when the sweep or burst mode is selected.
• Manual triggering initiates one sweep or outputs one burst each time
you press the key from the front-panel. Continue pressing this
key to re-trigger the function generator.
• The key is disabled when in remote (the remote icon turns on
while in remote) and when a function other than sweep or burst is
currently selected (or when the output is disabled). The key
flashes off momentarily when using a manual trigger.
