Thanks, this provided a great starting point for me! I've been able to get the code I've wanted to work. However, I've been unable to get DC offsets to trigger. Is this a feature that has not yet been added? For those looking at this in the future, you can use the function "FDwfAnalogOutTriggerSlopeSet" the set the required slope for an Analog Out output.

Hello, I am using multiple Analog Discovery 2s (AD2) for data acquisition in an experiment. For repeatability, I am using an external triggering source, positive edge, to generate both AWG signals and to acquire data from the AD2 oscilloscopes. I am able to create the exact specification I need in the WaveForms GUI for the AWG and the Oscilloscope data acquisition, but am at a loss for trying to replicate this in a control program written in python, even after reviewing the .py exames in the WaveForms SDK like Device_Synchronization.py and AnalogOutIn_Synchornization.py. Is there an example for external triggering in the reference folder I am missing or am I going about using the wrong functions to trigger successfully? Below is a sample of the commands I am using to try and set the external trigger for the Analog Out channel 0 and come either from example .py scripts or the SDK reference manual. The commented out code is some of the other command I have also tried to use to enable either DC output or a sine wave output to be triggered externally from a positive/rising edge. # set channel parameters dwf.FDwfAnalogOutConfigure(hdwf, c_int(0), c_bool(True)) # dwf.FDwfDeviceTriggerSet(hdwf, c_int(0),EXT) dwf.FDwfAnalogOutTriggerSourceSet(hdwf, c_int(0), channel, c_int(11)) # exteral trigger souce # dwf.FDwfAnalogOutTriggerSlopeSet(hdwf, c_int(0), DwfTriggerSlopeRise) # positive slope external trigger # dwf.FDwfAnalogOutNodeEnableSet(hdwf, c_int(0), AnalogOutNodeCarrier, c_bool(True)) # dwf.FDwfAnalogOutNodeFunctionSet(hdwf, c_int(0), AnalogOutNodeCarrier, funcDC) # dwf.FDwfAnalogOutNodeOffsetSet(hdwf, c_int(0), AnalogOutNodeCarrier, c_double(volt)) dwf.FDwfAnalogOutNodeFunctionSet(hdwf, c_int(0), c_int(0), c_byte(1)) # funcSine dwf.FDwfAnalogOutNodeFrequencySet(hdwf, c_int(0), c_int(0), c_double(1.0e6)) dwf.FDwfAnalogOutNodeAmplitudeSet(hdwf, c_int(0), c_int(0), c_double(volt)) dwf.FDwfAnalogOutNodeOffsetSet(hdwf, c_int(0), c_int(0), c_double(0)) Thanks in advance for your help!
