Description

Functions for controlling burst mode.

In burst mode, the generator generates a specified number of periods of the selected signal, a specified number of samples from the waveform buffer or a segement from the waveform buffer and then stops automatically.

Starting the generator is done using GenStart() and via an external trigger signal on a selected generator trigger input. For all burst modes except GM_BURST_COUNT a generator trigger input must be enabled.

The following burst modes are supported:

By default burst count, burst sample count and burst segment count are set to their minimum values.
