Press Shift Trigger. This sends the ac source an immediate trigger signal to generate
the four output pulses.
Note: The ac source output returns to 102 V at the completion of the output pulses.

List Transient
Lists are the most flexible means of generating multiple or synchronized transient outputs. The following
figure shows a voltage output generated from a list. The output shown represents three different ac
voltage pulses (160 volts for 33 milliseconds, 120 volts for 83 milliseconds, and 80 volts for 150
milliseconds) separated by 67-millisecond, 0-volt intervals.
The list specifies the pulses as three voltage points (point 0, 2, and 4), each with its corresponding dwell
point. The intervals are three zero-voltage points (point 1, 3, and 5) of equal intervals. The count
parameter causes the list to execute twice when started by a single trigger.
NOTE: From the Output Menu, execute the *RST command to reset the ac source. This is
necessary because any previously programmed functions remain in effect until cleared.
