Sync Output
Channel 2 can be configured to output Channel 1 sync from its MAIN OUT 2 socket. Sync is a multi
function output which is automatically selected to be any of the following. Alternatively, the user can
choose Sync to always be carrier referenced, to output the currently used trigger signal or turn it off.

A square wave that is a TTL high from the beginning of the sweep and a
TTL low from the midpoint of the sweep
Internal Trigger
External Trigger
Manual Trigger
Selects the current trigger signal.
Logic level nominally 3V
50Ω
Nominally 3V logic level from 50Ω.
≤ 50MHz
A square wave with 50% duty cycle at
[≤25MHz]
the waveform frequency.
≤ 160MHz
A sine wave at the waveform
[≤80MHz]
frequency.
A positive pulse which is 1 bit rate wide at the
beginning of the sequence
No sync associated with noise.
A square wave with 50% duty cycle referenced to
the internal modulation waveform when modulation
source is internal, or a square wave referenced to
the carrier waveform when modulation source is
external. No sync is associated with Noise and DC
waveforms as the modulation source .
A square wave referenced to the trigger rate. The
sync is a TTL high when hop amplitude is the
output amplitude and TTL low when carrier
amplitude is the output amplitude for positive slope
and vice versa for negative slope.
A square wave referenced to the trigger rate. The
sync is a TTL high when hop frequency is the
output frequency and TTL low when carrier
frequency is the output frequency for positive slope
and vice versa for negative slope.
A square wave referenced to the trigger rate. The
sync is a TTL high when the hop phase is the
output phase and TTL low when carrier phase is
the output phase for positive slope and vice versa
for negative slope.
A square wave with 50% duty cycle at the trigger
frequency.
A square wave with same duty cycle and frequency
as the external source.
A positive pulse which is approximately 18us wide
at the beginning of the event.
