Details
The user delay is an additional delay that is added after a channel is closed. You can use this delay
to allow additional settle time for a signal on that channel. For most cards, the resolution of the delay
is 10
µ
s. However, check the documentation for your card to verify. To see if the delay value was
modified after setting, use the
channel.getdelay()
command to query.
Channel patterns get their delay from the channels that comprise the pattern. Therefore, specify the
delay for a pattern through the channels. A pattern incurs the longest delay of all channels comprising
that pattern.
