Claim Text:
1. A method for actuating a number of modules with a circuit system that implements a trigger mechanism, in which at least one trigger signal can be caused by various sources, the method comprising: providing flexible triggering, via a flexible triggering arrangement, which is operable based on a time base and which simultaneously allows the triggering and controlling of a plurality of hardware units for signal outputting, wherein the flexible trigger arrangement, having connected modules, flexibly provides for a plurality of trigger types, including a trigger based on the time base, so that output units are switchable on or off, respective outputs are switchable on or off, and/or a parameter set is reloadable in a parallel manner, and wherein the flexible trigger arrangement is reprogrammable during runtime; and selecting, as a function of the source, a particular trigger mechanism that actuates a trigger.
