External Trigger
In external trigger, the RF signal generator accepts the trigger signal input
from the [TRRIGER IN] connector (as shown in the figure below) at the
rear panel. If the sweep mode is set to “Cont”, the instrument starts a
sweep each time a TTL pulse signal with specified polarity is received. If the
sweep mode is “Single”, press Single to meet the single sweep condition.
After that the instrument starts a sweep and then stops each time a TTL
pulse signal with the specified polarity is received.
To specify the polarity of the TTL pulse signal, press Trig Slope to select
“Pos” or “Neg” and the default is “Pos”.
