588-OEM-250ps Board Level Overview
The 588-OEM-250ps is a board level option based on the 588 series pulse generator. The
specifications, communications, and overall functionality of the OEM model are the same as
described for the Model 588. The unit is available with either 4 or 8 independent outputs
that can be used for synchronizing multiple events. The 588-OEM-250ps all communications will
take place through USB, Ethernet, or RS-232 as there is no display or keypad for
interactions. The guide for standard SCIP communications with the unit can be found
above in the 588 standard manual. As with the 588, the OEM version is capable of generating
multiple pulses for all applications; but additional setup is required before even basic
pulsing may begin.
