The charge level indicator illuminates when the capacitor bank is fully charged. The current monitor is an oscilloscope compatible reference voltage to monitor the current pulse, 1A = 100mV.
External Trigger
Trig In (BNC)
Sync Out
This is a BNC connector which provides a TTL sync output when the instrument is fired. This signal is generated by the internal clock and therefore the actual pulse output will be delayed relative to the Sync Out as specified by the channel delay parameter.
Interlock
A switch is provided to arm/disarm the system. This switch is used with the interlock input on the rear panel to control pulse generation of the system. A READY indicator is provided to indicate that the rear interlock is satisfied and the arm/disarm switch is in the armed position. No pulses will be generated unless the LED is on. When the system is disarmed, a relay disconnects the bank voltage from the output jacks.
Rear Panel
Interlock
This is a BNC connector which must be appropriately connected to allow the instrument to generate pulses. The input must be shorted to satisfy the interlock.
Serial Port
