Source Subsystem (Pulse)

This subsystem controls the generation of output pulses. The PULSe:DCYCle, PULSe:HOLD, PULSe:PERiod, and PULSe:WIDTh commands are coupled, which means that the values programmed by any one of these commands can be affected by the settings of the others. Refer to the tables under PULSe:HOLD for an explanation of how these commands affect each other.

Subsystem Syntax

[SOURce:]

 

PULSe

 

:COUNt <n> INFinity

Selects transient pulse count

:DCYCle <n>

Selects pulse duty cycle

:HOLD <parameter>

Selects parameter that is held constant (WIDTh DCYCle)

:PERiod <n>

Selects pulse period when the count is greater than 1

:WIDTh <n>

Selects width of the pulses

PULSe:COUNt

This command sets the number of pulses that are output when a triggered output transient occurs. The command accepts parameters in the range 1 through 9.9E37. If INFinity or MAXimum is sent, the output pulse repeats indefinitely.
