Burst Parameter Menu
Table 2-8 shows the Burst Parameter Menu.
Triggered Burst Mode. When a trigger event occurs in burst mode, the waveform is
output for the number of cycles specified by the Burst Parameter Menu. Once the
triggered burst mode is selected, the arbitrary/function generator will wait for a
trigger event to occur.
Gated Burst Mode. In the gated burst mode, the output is enabled or disabled based
on the internal gate signal or an external signal applied to the front panel Trigger
Input connector. While the gate signal is true or the front panel Manual Trigger but-
ton is depressed, the instrument outputs a continuous waveform.
When the trigger source is set to Internal, the trigger interval can be set. The set-
ting range of trigger interval is 1 ms to 500 s. The default is 1 ms.
When the trigger source is set to External, you can select Positive or Negative as
the trigger slope. The instrument will trigger on the rising edge (Positive) or falling
edge (Negative) of the signal applied to the front-panel Trigger Input connector.
