Operating Modes
Continuous
Generates the waveform or sequence continuously.
Check Cont
Mode,
page 4Ć12.
Triggered
Output quiescent until triggered by an GPIB, external, or manual
trigger; then generates a waveform or sequence only one time.
Check TrigĆ
gered Mode,
page 4Ć14.
Gated
Same as Continuous mode, except waveforms or sequences
are output for the duration of the gated signal.
Check Gated
Mode
page 4Ć16.
Waveform Advance
Continuous
Continuously generates the waveform or sequence in the SeĆ
quence file; the next trigger advances to the next waveform/seĆ
quence.
Check WaveĆ
form Advance
Mode,
page 4Ć18.
Step Output quiescent until triggered by an GPIB, external, or manual
trigger; then generates the waveform/sequence in the Sequence
file. When the scan count reaches its value, then stops output
and waits for the next trigger.
Autostep
Continuous Similar operation to the Waveform Advance : Continuous, but
the Autostep file is used instead of the Sequence file and the
output parameters (Amplitude, Offset, etc.) are changed.
Check AutoĆ
step Mode,
page 4Ć20.
Step Similar operation to the Waveform Advance : Step, but the AuĆ
tostep file is used instead of the Sequence file and the output
parameters (Amplitude, Offset, etc.) are changed.
Master Provide the Clock and the Trigger to the Slave AWG2005 for the
parallel operation.
Slave Receive the Clock and the Trigger from the Master AWG2005 for
the parallel operation.
