The External Trigger input can now (finally) be used for a second trigger type: PULSE
- how would you wire this up to demonstrate this?

This would help explain Teneyes' earlier discovery that the Ext. Trigger can now be used as a source for the counter: it seems to go hand-in-hand with adding pulse measuring capabilities.

An encouraging sign... let's hope they keep adding more triggers it can be used as a source for.

Thanks

Here is 1MHz on Ch1 , with  a 250KHz ,phase locked to the 1Mhz and connect to the External Trigger.
Note:  The Trigger is set to Rising edge on the External input. but the trigger point is the falling part of the Sine wave.
# 2 showing what was on the External input

Circlotron:
Teneyes, can you show us the same test using square waves, say from a synchronous binary counter chip? If there is a difference there, that would be serious.

What do you mean? Serious in what way?

Circlotron:
It would mean something is way wrong. With a sinewave input maybe there is some phase shift in the external analog circuit, but inputting two square waves with known identical corresponding transitions every 4 cycles, only different in frequency, it is a very easy test to reproduce, and if an anomaly shows up, then yeah, theres problems alright.
