8.1.2
Single Shot Mode
Pressing the unit‟s Run/Stop button generates a single pulse with every press. Set the following parameters in
the 525 application:
Within the System section:
o
Select Single Shot mode.
Within the Channel section:
o
Set channel mode to Normal.
o
Enter the required pulse width and delay. Repeat for each output channel.
o
Enable the correspo
nding channels by clicking “Enabled” in the 525 application.
Pressing the unit‟s Run/Stop button will now generate one pulse out of every enabled channel.
8.1.3
System Burst Mode Function
The Run/Stop button
generates a stream of „N‟ T
0
pulses, where the „N‟ is specified by the Burst parameter. The
rate is specified by the Period parameter. Pressing the
Run/Stop
button while the burst is in process will stop the
output. After the burst has been completed, pressing the
Run/Stop
button will generate another burst of pulses.
To generate a burst of pulses set the following parameters in the 525 application:
Within the System section:
o
Select mode to be Burst.
o
Set the Burst Count parameter field to produce the number of pulses desired
o
Set the desired Period.
Within the Channel section:
o
Set channel mode to Normal.
o
Enter the required pulse width and delay. Repeat for each output channel.
o
Enable the corresponding channels by clicking “Enabled” in the 525 application.
Pressing the unit‟s Run/Stop button will now generate the predefined burst of pulses out of every enabled
channel.
8.1.4
System Duty Cycle Function
The Run/Stop button starts a continuous stream of T
0
pulses, which repeats
for „N‟ pulses On and „M‟ pulses Off,
where „N‟ and „M‟ are specified by the On/Off parameters respectively. The rate at which the pulses are
generated is controlled by the Period parameter. To generate a stream of pulses which will
repeat for „N‟ pulses
On and „M‟ pulses, set the following parameters in the 525 application:
Within the System section:
o
Set the mode to Duty Cycle.
o
Set the On parameter to the number of pulses to produce during the on cycle („N‟).
o
Set the Off parameter to the number of pulses to suppress during the off cycle
(„M‟).
o
Set the desired Period.
Within the Channel section:
o
Set channel mode to Normal.
o
Set the Sync Source to T
0
in each respective channel tab
.
o
Enter the required pulse width and delay. Repeat for each output channel.
o
Enable the corresponding channels by clicking “Enabled” in the 525 application.
Pressing the unit‟s Run/Stop button will now generate duty cycle pulses out of every enabled channel.
8.2 Channel Timer Overview
The output of each channel is controlled by two timers to generate the pulse width and the delay timing. All
