Continuous: Output waveform/sequence continuous at programmed waveshape, frequency, amplitude,
and offset.
Triggered: Output quiescent until triggered by an external, GPIB, or manual trigger; generates a
waveform/sequence only one time.
Burst: Output quiescent until triggered by an external, GPIB, or manual trigger; then generates a
waveform/sequence up to 65,536 times.
Gated: Same as continuous mode except period is executed only for the duration of the gated signal
until the sequence started is completed.
Waveform Advance: Output quiescent until triggered by an external, GPIB, or manual trigger, then
generates the waveform/sequence in the Sequence file. When the scan count reaches value, output
stops and waits for next trigger.
Auto Step: Continuously outputs the waveform/sequence in the Auto Step file; the next Auto Step
Trigger (rear panel) advances the waveform/sequence.
Slave: Receives clock from a master arbitrary waveform generator for parallel operation.
