Agilent E8462A Relay Multiplexer Command Reference 83
OUTPut
The OUTPut command subsystem selects the source of the output trigger generated
when a channel is closed during a scan. The selected output can be enabled,
disabled, and queried. The three available outputs are the ECLTrg, TTLTrg trigger
buses as well as the command module's (E1406A) front panel "Trig Out" port.

:TTLTrgn (:TTLTrg0 through :TTLTrg7)

[:STATe]?
OUTPut:ECLTrgn[:STATe]
OUTPut:ECLTrgn[:STATe] <mode> Selects and enables which ECL Trigger bus
line (0 or 1) will output a trigger when a channel is closed during a scan. This is also
used to disable a selected ECL Trigger bus line. "n" specifies the ECL Trigger bus
line (0 or 1) and "mode" enables (
ON or 1) or disables (OFF or 0) the specified
ECLTrg bus line.
Parameters
Comments
Enabling ECL Trigger Bus: When enabled, a pulse is output from the selected
ECL Trigger bus line (0 or 1) after each channel is closed during a scan. If disabled,
a pulse is not output. The output is a negative-going pulse.
ECL Trigger Bus Line Shared by Switchboxes: Only one switchbox
configuration can use the selected trigger at a time. When enabled, the selected ECL
Trigger bus line (0 or 1) is pulsed by the switchbox each time a scanned channel is
closed. To disable the output for a specific switchbox, send the
OUTPut:ECLTrgn OFF or 0 command for that switchbox.
One Output Selected at a Time: Only one output (
ECLTrg0 or 1; TTLTrg0, 1, 2, 3,
4, 5, 6, or 7; or EXTernal) can be enabled at one time. Enabling a different output
source will automatically disable the active output. For example, if
TTLTrg1 is the
active output, and
TTLTrg4 is enabled, TTLTrg1 will become disabled and TTLTrg4
will become the active output.
