PS6000_TRIGGER_CONDITIONS structure

A structure of this type is passed to ps6000SetTriggerChannelConditions in the

conditions argument to specify the trigger conditions, and is defined as follows: -

typedef struct tTriggerConditions

{

PS6000_TRIGGER_STATE channelA;

PS6000_TRIGGER_STATE channelB;

PS6000_TRIGGER_STATE channelC;

PS6000_TRIGGER_STATE channelD;

PS6000_TRIGGER_STATE external;

PS6000_TRIGGER_STATE aux;

PS6000_TRIGGER_STATE pulseWidthQualifier;

} PS6000_TRIGGER_CONDITIONS

Each structure is the logical AND of the states of the scope's inputs. The

ps6000SetTriggerChannelConditions function can OR together a number of these

structures to produce the final trigger condition, which can be any possible Boolean

function of the scope's inputs.

The structure is byte-aligned. In C++, for example, you should specify this using the

#pragma pack() instruction.

Elements

channelA, channelB, channelC, channelD, aux,

pulseWidthQualifier: the type of condition that should be

applied to each channel. Use these constants:

PS6000_CONDITION_DONT_CARE

PS6000_CONDITION_TRUE

PS6000_CONDITION_FALSE

The channels that are set to PS6000_CONDITION_TRUE or

PS6000_CONDITION_FALSE must all meet their conditions

simultaneously to produce a trigger. Channels set to

PS6000_CONDITION_DONT_CARE are ignored.
