This topic describes how to setup clock recovery when using an 86100D-STR (standard-trigger option) instrument with one of the following modules. In this situation, you must connect a cable between the module's clock output port to the 86100D's Trigger input connector as shown in the following picture. When using one of the TDR module, connect the cable to the TDR module's front panel Trigger output. You do not need to connect a cable on 86100-ETR enhanced-trigger instruments.

This topic applies only to 86100D-STR instruments. It does not apply to the N1000A or the 86100D-ETR (enhanced-trigger).

To configure the setup

  1. Connect the cable shown in this picture.
  2. Click Setup > Trigger Setup to open the dialog.
  3. In the dialog box's General Trigger Setup tab, select the Front Panel Trigger input.
