| Continuous |
A selected outputfunction shape is outputcontinuously. |
| Self Armed |
No start commands arerequired to generatewaveforms. |
| Armed |
The output dwells on aDC level and waits foran enable commandand then the outputwaveform is outputcontinuously; An abortcommand turns off thewaveform. |
| Triggered |
A trigger signal activatesa single-shot or counted burst of outputwaveforms and then theinstrument waits for thenext trigger signal. |
| Normal Mode |
The first trigger signal activates the output; consecutive triggers are ignored for the duration of the output waveform. |
| Override Mode |
restart the output waveform regardless if the current waveform hasbeen completed or not. |
| Gated |
A waveform is outputwhen a gate signal isasserted. The waveformis repeated until the gatesignal is de-asserted.Last period is alwayscompleted. |
| Burst |
Upon trigger, outputs a Dual or multiple preprogrammed number of waveform cycles from 1 through 1M. |
