Press the Page button to select the next page. There may be multiple channel
menus depending upon your unit. Secondary menus can be accessed by press-
ing the letter key of that channel a second time.
There are also individual menu keys for the gate (GATE), trigger (TRIG), and
system (MENU) menus. Depending upon your unit, each of these menus may
have multiple pages, accessed by the Page button, or secondary menus, ac-
cessed by pressing that particular function key a second time.
Selecting Menu Items
Within a menu, the blinking cursor indicates the current menu item for editing.
The NEXT will select a different menu item.
Numeric Input Mode
When the current item is numeric, the system enters the Numeric Input Mode. In
this mode data may be edited using the arrow keypad. The Left and Right arrow
keys are used to select a digit to edit. The selected digit blinks to identify itself
as the active digit. The Up and Down arrow keys are then used to increment or
decrement this digit.
Entering Non-Numeric Parameters
When the current item is non-numeric, the Up and Down arrow keys are used to
select among different options for the parameter. If the item is an on-off toggle,
the Up arrow enables the item and the Down arrow disables the item.
Enabling System Output
The RUN/STOP key is used to arm the system. With external trigger disabled,
the key will arm and start pulse output. With external trigger enabled, the key will
arm the pulse generator. Pulse output then starts after the first valid trigger input.
Pressing the RUN/STOP key a second time disables the pulse generator.
Enable/Disable Channel Output
At the top of each channel menu page is a parameter to enable or disable the
output of the channel. Each channel may be individually enabled or disabled.
Rearming the Channel Timers
If there are channels currently running in normal mode, single shot and burst
channels can be re-armed without affecting the timing on normal mode channels
by pressing function RUN/STOP.
Setting Pulse Timing Parameters
Pulses are defined by a delay, from their sync or start pulse to the active edge,
and a width.
Wid:
Sets the width of the active portion of the pulse.
Dly:
Sets the delay from the sync source to the start of the
pulse.
