provides three unique user interfaces; control from the front panel, control from a PC, and control from a TTL
direct interface.
The front control panel allows the user to directly program and monitor the shutter open/close times. In addition
modes such as run continuous (auto), single shot, and repeat are also entered via the front panel interface. The
repeat mode allows the user to repeat the displayed open/close sequence from 1 to 99 times.
The unit can be triggered from a TTL input. The TTL input may also be configured as external gate where the
control of the SH05 output will follow the TTL input.
The unit may also be controlled and operated from a remote RS232 interface. All of the provisioning and control
can be programmed using a command line editor, or from the stand alone PC application software supplied with
the unit. The unit also comes with LabWindows/CVI® and LabVIEW® drivers.
When integrated with the SH05, shutter the unit detects the presence of the unit and provides an
alarming/monitor feature to insure the status of the shutter agrees with the output of the controller. When the
SH05 is present the output trigger follows the actual state of the SH05, this can be used for triggering other
devices or for monitoring the performance of the shutter. When the controller is used without a shutter the TTL
output signal represents the precise programmed output of the controller.
A key lock and an interlock function are also provided on the SC10.
The SC10 provides drive/output pulses that have 0.001Second resolution and 0.0001 Second accuracy for both
the ON (OPEN) and OFF (CLOSE) time. Though the controller has this accuracy the resulting operation of a
shutter differs due the mechanical and electrical properties of the shutter.
