Details
When the trigger model reaches a notify block, the instrument generates a trigger event and
immediately continues to the next block.
You can define up to eight notify blocks in a trigger model. You can reference the event that the notify
block generates by other commands to assign a stimulus somewhere else in the system. For
example, you can use the notify event as the stimulus of a hardware trigger line, such as a digital I/O
line.
When you call this event, you use the format NOTIFY followed by the notify ID. For example, if you
assign <notifyID> as 4, you would refer to it as NOTIFY4 in the command that references it.
Example
:TRIG:BLOC:BRAN:EVEN 6, NOTIFY2, 2
Define trigger model block 5 to be the notify 2
event. Assign the notify 2 event to be the trigger
for stimulus for the branch event for block 6.
