Continuous Trigger Mode


The waveform you define in the staging list generates infinitely by continually cycling through the staging list. After a trigger is received, the waveform generation starts at the first stage, continues through the last stage, and loops back to the start of the first stage, continuing until you stop the waveform generation. Only one trigger is required to start the waveform generation.

You can use Continuous trigger mode with both the Arbitrary Waveform Generation and Function Generation modes, as shown in the following figures.
