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
