TimeTag tab
This tab contains the very basic operation modes.
ReadTags
Select “ReadTags” to start reading tags. The right hand side window displays the channel
number and the time difference to the previous time value. The first tagged received is time
zero.
Use10MHz
Select this to connect to the external timing reference. When no appropriate signal is
connected on the rear side of the device, an error flag is shown.
Display Interval/ms
Enter the value of time interval (in ms) you would like to observe on the display window.
Filter
FilterMinCount:
Enter the minimum number of tags required in one group.
When the value is 1, all tags are transmitted.
FilterMaxTime
: Enter the maximum time interval (ns) between any two tags
within a group. Ensure the value is less than period of any of the
input signals, or else all tags will be transmitted.
Note: A group be of arbitrary length as long as there is no time gap greater than the specified
maximum time.
FilterExceptions:
Click on the corresponding channel number to mark them with
“+”. All Inputs marked with a “+”are excluded from the filter.
They are always transmitted. (e.g. 1pps pulse)
Caution: Using filter exceptions can cause time tags not to be transmitted in correct order.
(e.g. Time differences can be negative)
ExceptionMask:
This value is changes automatically when Filter Exceptions is changed.
This is the value to be transmitted to SetFilterExceptions().
