Keithley 2182 User Manual

5-26 Ratio and Delta
Trigger link connections — External triggering is used to synchronize source-measure
operations among the instruments. The SourceMeter must trigger both Model 2182s to achieve
simultaneous measurements. In turn, only one of the Model 2182s must trigger the SourceMeter
to output the next source value.
The trigger link connections required for this application are shown in Figure 5-12. Notice
that the output trigger (VMC) required from the Model 2182s is provided by unit #1. VMC from
unit #2 must not be used.
