Trigger Out
The Trigger Output signal of the instrument is linked to run mode and function
selected in CH1, if your instrument is a dual-channel model.
1. Connect the
front-panel
Trigger Output connector
and the external trigger
input conn

and the ris ing
edge at the start of each
waveform period.
When an o
utput

than 4.9 MHz, some
restri
ctions are applied.
See the Quick Tips below.
3. Sweep mode: When the
Repea
