1. The
Channel Types
are displayed on the left side of the window. These include the
⋆
LISER
TM
light sources, the
LED
light sources and the
Laser Diode
light sources.
2. The
Channel Options
section allows you to define the Light Source Option, the Current options and the Trig-
gering Options. The different fields of this section are explained in more detail in section
3. The
Sequence Options
defines the parameters of each pulse sequence for the channel. These parameters are
different for each Channel Mode. The different fields for the different Channel Mode are explained in more
detail in section
4. The
Sequence Preview
section shows a visualization of the output sequence that will be generated by the
current configuration.
5. The
Add
button will save the current channel configuration and enables a new channel to be configured. The
Close
button will close the window without saving the current channel configuration.
4.1.2 Channel Options Section
Figure 4.2:
Channel Options of the Channel Configuration Window
The Channel Option section (Fig.
) is separated in 3 sub-sections, the
LightSource Options
section that defines
the channel and its mode, the
Current Options
and the
Trigger Options
section that control the trigger method of
the selected channel.
LightSource Options
1. The
Channel
field identifies which of the available channels is currently being modified. The Light Source can
be changed by selecting a new one from the drop-down list.
2. The
Mode
field identifies the mode used to generate the light. Five modes are available,
Continuous Wave
(fix current),
External TTL
(external digital command),
External Analog
(external analog command),
Square Se-
quence(s)
(internal digital command), and
Complex Sequences(s)
mode (internal analog command). Each mode
enables different options of the Sequence Option section that are explained in more detail in section
