Programming

To Use Run-Time Control Mode

Switch Settling Time

You must specify switch settling time before starting run-time mode. The
default setting is 2

µ

s.

NOTE

If your configuration requires you to use the multiple-parameter display
features of the 8530A, as described in

“Single Source Multiple-Frequency

Configuration” on page 6-5

, set settling time to 50

µ

s. This applies to:

The single source multiple-frequency configuration.

The dual source multiple-frequency configuration, but only when the
8530A controls the source
s.

Applicable command:

RUNTime:SWITch:DELay

TTL Trigger and
Ready Timeouts

Timeout conditions are used for:

Event triggering (EVENT TRIG)

Receiver ready (RCVR READY)

Source ready lines (SRC 1 READY and SRC 2 READY)

Timeouts enable the 85330A to recover from possible error conditions.

The timeout for the event trigger input has two separate timeout settings:

One timeout is for the first trigger being issued.

The other timeout is for subsequent triggers.

If the expected signal is not received before the specified time, the 85330A
will exit from run-time operation and issue an error.

Applicable commands:

RUNTime:TIMEout:EVENt

RUNTime:TIMEout:RECeiver

RUNTime:TIMEout:SOURce
