Continuous Ċ In this mode, the first waveform is output over and
over again for each channel when a trigger signal is received. When
the next trigger signal is received, output of the first waveform stops
after the end point of that waveform and then the second waveform
is output in the same manner. The next waveform is not started at
the moment a trigger is received, but rather at the completion of the
previous waveform.
In this way, waveforms are output for each channel one by one in
sequence each time a trigger signal is received. When a trigger
signal is received while output of the last waveform is in progress,
the output stops at the end point of that waveform and then the
process begins again from output of the first waveform.
Step Ċ In this mode, the first waveform is output on each channel
when a trigger signal is received, but only for the number of times
set with Repeat in the sequence editor. The next waveform is output
when the next trigger signal is received. Other operations are the
same as Continuous output.

Autostep Mode Ċ Use Autostep mode to start an Autostep file
created with the EDIT menu Autostep editor. An Autostep file stores
a program that specifies a waveform or sequence file (including
output parameters) for each channel for each step.
Autostep mode resembles Waveform Advance mode in which each
time a trigger is received, the display advances one waveform.
However, in this mode the output parameters for each waveform
change as well. The operating mode for each step can be set with
the waveform output conditions to either Continuous or Step,asin
the case of Waveform Advance mode. Just as in other operating
modes, the Autostep mode trigger signal can be generated from the
external trigger signal or by pressing the front panel MANUAL butĆ
ton.
Continuous Ċ In this mode the programmed Step:1 waveform is
output over and over again when a trigger signal is received. When
the next trigger signal is received output of the Step:1 waveform
stops after the end point of that waveform and then the Step:2
waveform is output in the same manner. The waveform is started at
the moment a trigger is received.
In this way, the current waveforms advance for each channel one by
one in sequence each time a trigger signal is received. When a
trigger signal is received while output of the last waveform in the
step is in progress, the output stops at the end point of that waveĆ
form and then the process begins again from output of the Step:1
waveform.
