WT Xmit pulse
length
This field, set by the WT-command (
), contains
the length of the transmit pulse. When the Pathfinder receives a
<BREAK> signal, it sets the transmit pulse length as close as possible
to the depth cell length (
). This means the Path-
finder uses a WT command of zero. However, the WT field contains
the actual length of the transmit pulse used.
