Characteristics

Gated Trigger Input --
Enable-to-Acquire
Delay
(Option GT equipped
instruments only)

3 trigger cycles, where each cycle is defined as (holdoff time + trigger
latency). For example:

With holdoff set to its minimum 5 s setting, and a 2.500 GHz clock
signal applied to the External Direct Trigger input (a period of 400 ps),
the Enable-to-Acquire delay is approximated as 3 x (5 s + 0.0004 s)
= 15.0012 s.

The Enable-to-Acquire delay is the amount of time after the Gated
Trigger has been enabled (the level goes from TTL LOW to HIGH)
when the first valid sample is retained by the system as the beginning
of the waveform record length. When the Gated Trigger is enabled and
triggers begin to occur, the system will reject the first three samples to
avoid system recovery conditions. Once the first three points have been
discarded, then the next valid trigger cycle will be the first point of the
record section.

Gated Trigger Input --
Maximum Disable
Time
(Option GT equipped
instruments only)

The system checks the status of the gated Trigger approximately once
per holdoff and re-arm cycle. If the Gated Trigger is disabled
immediately after this system check, it will allow nominally a maximum
time of (holdoff + trigger period) to elapsed before the checking for the
status of the Gated Trigger input, recognizing the disable condition, and
halting any further sampling of the signal.
