Meter complete
The METER COMPLETE OUTPUT jack provides a TTL-
compatible output pulse that can be used to trigger other
instruments. The specifications for this trigger pulse are
shown in Figure 2-15.
Typically, you would want the Model 2002 to output a trig-
ger after the settling time of each measurement. (Settling
time includes the internally set measurement settling time
and the user programmed DELAY period.) An output com-
pletion pulse occurs after each measurement as long as the
measure source is set to external, timer, manual, or immedi-

ate. See paragraph 2.7.2 for details on programming the mea-
sure layer.
The Model 2002 can also output a completion pulse while in
the scan and/or arm layers of operation. Figure 2-12 shows
where these triggers occur in the trigger model. If the scan
layer Source Bypass is enabled (Control = Source) and the
Scan Source is programmed for External, an output trigger
occurs on each return path through the scan layer. If the arm
layer Source Bypass is enabled (Control = Source) and the
Arm Source is programmed for External, an output trigger
occurs on each return path through the arm layer. See para-
graphs 2.7.3 and 2.7.4 for programming the Scan and arm
layers.
External triggering example #1
In a typical test system, you may want to close a channel and
then measure the DUT connected to that channel with a mul-
timeter. Such a test system is shown in Figure 2-16, which
uses a Model 2002 Multimeter to measure ten DUTs
switched by a Model 7011 multiplexer card in a Model 7001
or 7002 Switch System.
The external trigger connections for this test are shown in
Figure 2-17. Channel Ready (output) of the Model 7001 or
7002 is connected to External Trigger Input of the Model
2002. Meter Complete Output of the Model 2002 is con-
nected to External Trigger (input) of the Model 7001 or
7002.
