7-27
Mode:
Select the Normal mode.
Pressing the
RUN/STOP
key will now generate a continuous stream of pulses.
To Use Channel Single Shot Function
The Single Shot mode generates a single pulse every time the
RUN/STOP
key is
pressed. If the unit is in the active state, ( i.e. channels which are set to the
Normal mode are producing pulses), pressing the
FUNC
key and
RUN/STOP
key will reset the Single Shot counters and generate one pulse in sync with the
other channels running in the Normal mode. To use the Single Shot mode:
- within the Channel menus
Enable:
Select "Enabled" to enable channel output.
Delay:
Set the desired delay.
Width:
Set the desired pulse width.
Mode:
Select the Single shot mode.
To Use Channel Burst Mode Function
The Burst mode generates a burst of pulses every time the
RUN/STOP
key is
pressed. If the unit is in the active state, (i.e. channels which are set to the
Normal mode are producing pulses), pressing the
FUNC
-
RUN/STOP
key
sequence will reset the Burst counters and generate a new set of pulses in sync
with the other channels running in the Normal mode.
FUNC
-
RUN/STOP
will not
affect T
0
pulse status. To use the Burst mode:
- within the Channel menus
Enable:
Select
“Enabled” to enable channel output.
Delay:
Set the desired delay.
Width:
Set the desired pulse width.
Mode:
Select the Burst mode.
#/Burst:
Set the number of pulses to produce in the burst.
To Use the Channel Duty Cycle Function
To generate a stream of pulses which oscillates on for ‘n’ pulses and off for ‘m’
pulses:
- within the Channel menus
Enable:
Select
“Enabled” to enable channel output.
Delay:
Set the desired delay.
Width:
Set the desired pulse width.
Mode:
Select the Duty Cycle mode.
On Cycle:
Set the number of pulses to produce during the on
cycle.
Off Cycle:
Set the number of pulses to skip during the off cycle.
*Note: Older Berkeley Nucleonics pulse generators had a divide-by-n func-tion.
The duty cycle mode is a more general case. To reproduce the divide-by-n
