2. If the Timeout Type of Trigger Reset is selected, touch
Time and use the multipurpose knobs or keypad to set
the reset time. The reset time is the time from the A
trigger that you want to reset the sequential triggers if
the B trigger has not occurred. If the reset occurs, the
instrument does not trigger. If the reset occurs, the
instrument starts over looking for the A trigger.
In the example, the edge trigger A event occurs on the
rising edge of the pulse on Ch1. The trigger delay
expires 1 s after the rising edge of the pulse on Ch1.
Ch2 provides the B events. The reset event window
starts with the A event and ends 3 s later.
If the trigger reset timeout were reduced to 2  s, the
instrument would not trigger because the timeout would
occur before the next B event on Ch2.
