Pulse Generator

eVent interVAl ..............A ten-turn dial with an associated six-position rotary switch 

are used to control the internal time base of the instrument. 
the number set on the dial is multiplied by the position of 
the range switch. For example, .8 on the dial and xms 
on the switch, represent an event interval of .8 ms.

eVent delAY ....................A ten-turn dial with an associated six-position rotary switch 

are used to control the delay between the internal or 
external pulse starting the event interval and the beginning 
of the first pulse in the event.

Pulse WidtH ....................A ten-turn dial with an associated six-position rotary switch 

are used to control the duration of the pulse(s) within the 
event interval.

sinGle/douBle ..............A two-position switch used to select a “twin” pulse. in the 

sinGle  Pulse mode, the first pulse in an event appears 
after the elapse of the event delay. in the douBle mode, in 
addition of the normal pulse(s) of the event interval, a pulse 
is generated coincident with the beginning of the event 
interval and of the same duration as the other pulse(s) of the 
event interval. this feature is functional in both the pulse 
and the train generation modes.

Train Generator

on/oFF ...............................A two-position switch used to enable and disable the train 

generator function of the instrument.

trAin durAtion ............A ten-turn dial with an associated six-position rotary switch 

are used to control the duration of the train of pulses. the 
length of the train may be longer than the value set on the 
dial because the last pulse of the train is, by design, of the 
same duration as the earlier pulses.  

Pulse interVAl ..............A ten-turn dial with an associated six-position rotary switch 

are used to control the time interval between the beginnings 
of the pulses within a train.
