Chapter 6
Marker Outputs/Multiple AFG Operations
Chapter Contents
This chapter shows how to generate the different signals at the front panel’s
“Marker Out” BNC and how to select the ECL trigger lines. Use these
signals and trigger lines to synchronize multiple AFGs, generate trigger
pulses, etc. The sections are as follows:
