- The time which the solenoid is activated (i.e. the shutter/
solenoid is open) 100 ms to 10000 ms in 1 ms steps.
Off duration (ms)
- The time which the solenoid is de-activated (i.e. the shutter/
solenoid is closed) 100 ms to 10000 ms in 1 ms steps.
Cycle Count
- The number of Open/Close cycles (0 to 1,000,000) to perform when
the unit is operating in ‘Auto’ mode . If set to ‘0’ the unit cycles indefinitely.
Caution
The ‘Persist Settings’ functionality is provided to simplify use of the unit
in the absence of a PC. When the unit is connected to a PC and is
operated via the Kinesis software, the default settings will be loaded at
boot up, even if the ‘Persist Settings’ option has been checked.
Note
If operating in ‘Triggered’ mode with the
Number of Cycles
parameter set
to ‘0’, then the solenoid ON and OFF times are defined respectively by the
HIGH and LOW values of the trigger pulse.
