11.3.4.4 Timeout
The timeout trigger event checks if the trigger source signal stays above or below the
threshold voltage for a specified time lapse. In other words, the event occurs if the state
condition remains unchanged for the specified time.
You can use the timeout trigger on a single digital channel, or a logical combination of
digital channels.
Fig. 11-4: Timeout trigger settings for trigger source = logical combination of digital channels
Range
Sets the state condition:
"Stays high"
The level of a digital channel stays above the threshold, or the logical
expression for "Logic" trigger source is true.
"Stays low"
The level of a digital channel stays below the threshold, or the logical
expression for "Logic" trigger source is false.
"High or low"
The signal state remains unchanged.
