If one of the waveform types was set to
Ramped DC in the last four sequences, the
menu state that would have displayed and
that set’s waveform frequency would be
skipped.
Note that in DUAL MODE, if the Primary
wave Pulse Type is set to Ramped DC, the
frequency menu starts with the frequency
setting of the Secondary waveform. The
following graphical displays are shown only
for example and are in no specific order.
8 DUTY CYCLE
The DUTY CYCLE button is use to view
and set the duty cycle, percent of the
wave cycle (where the output is at the
set voltage). If the pulse type is BURST
OF PULSES, the DUTY CYCLE button
sets the number of pulses in a burst. The
pulse width, calculated using the current
frequency setting, is shown on the last line
of the DUTY CYCLE display.
If the wave type is set for DC and DUAL
MODE is not enabled or the secondary
wave type is also DC, an error message is
shown briefly before returning to Status
Display.
If the wave type is set for STANDARD
PULSE than the current waveform’s duty
cycle setting is displayed.
Changes to the displayed setting can be
made with the arrow buttons, limited by
the currently set frequency, and the PES
®
’s
If Dual mode is enabled the first display shows
the frequency setting of the Primary waveform.
If that waveform is a Burst of Pulses type the
display would show the setting of the Burst
Frequency of the Primary Waveform otherwise
the display will simply show the Cycle
Frequency. Changes to the displayed setting
can be made with the up or down arrows.
Pressing SELECT would save that setting and
change the display to the next menu item.
Menu items follow the following order
depending on the Dual mode setting and
the Pulse Type settings. The display cycles
to the next menu item when SELECT is
pressed.
