To trigger an instrument from an external source through a relay:

Connect a the normally-open switch contacts of a suitable relay

between pins B and H, with the coil connected to your generator
so that pins B and H are connected when a trigger occurs.

The relay allows you to power the external generator from any

source. This includes the instrument's own power supply at
pins A and B, if it is suitable.

Connect the other pins as normal.

If you prefer, you can use a separate power source for your trigger

generator. However, because pin H is referenced to power ground, the
external power supply must share a common ground with that of the

digitizer, so you should connect the power supply ground to pin A.
