help
?
Prints the help menu.
get id
g i
Print board ID (required for firmware updates).
get state
g s
Print arm of device (arm/disarmed/fault).
[get / set] voltage [150..500]
[g / s] v
Print current or set value for capacitor charge
voltage. If the device is in the armed state, the
(actual) measured voltage will also be reported.
When device is disarmed the high-voltage is not
turned on, so reported measure voltages are inva-
lid.
Example:
# disarmed:
set voltage 150
# voltage 500v ........[capacitor bank voltage]
# voltage 21v(measured)[capacitor bank voltage]
# disarmed:
s v 500
[get / set] pulse width [80..1000]
[g / s] p w
Print current or set value for pulse width in nS.
Using this method has a coarse pulse width of
80nS, so the value will be reported as being
mapped to the nearest possible value in the ‘meas-
ured’ result. If better resolution is needed see
the programmable trigger option.
