Trigger output
Any of the Digital Control pins can be programmed to function as a trigger output. All pins are referenced to the
Signal Common pin.
When configured as a trigger output, the designated trigger pin will generate a 10-microsecond trigger pulse in
response to a trigger event. The polarity setting can be either positive-going (rising edge) or negative-going (falling
edge) when referenced to common.
Trigger out signals can be generated when configuring the voltage and current in the Output LIST. If you check the
BOST and EOST boxes when configuring the Output LIST, an output trigger signal will be generated on the
configured digital pin at the start and end of the voltage and current step.
