6.4.1 Transient System Model
Figure 6-1 shows a model of the transient system. The figure shows the transient modes
and the output waveform that is generated in each mode.
When a trigger is received in step or pulse modes, the triggered functions are set from their
IMMediate to their TRIGgered value. In Step mode, the triggered value becomes the
immediate value. In Pulse mode, the functions return to their immediate value during the low
portion of the pulse.
If there are no further pulses, the immediate value remains in effect. In List mode, the
functions remain at the last list value at the completion of the list.
You can not mix STEP, PULSe, and LIST modes among functions.
IMMediate level
FIXED mode
Triggers ignored,

levels.
TRIGered level
IMMediate level
STEP mode
At trigger, the triggered
level becomes the new
immediate level.
TRIGered level
IMMediate level
PULSE mode
At trigger, the triggered
level is active during the
pulse width portion of
the pulse waveform.

At trigger, the list starts.
When list completes,
output returns to
immediate level.
