LaserSpeed 8000-3 Instruction Handbook
<N> is an integer from 0 to 999,999,999 that is the number of pulses per unit length scaled by 1000.
The High Speed Pulse Output can output pulses at rates higher than 5MHz. Caution should be used to ensure that the maximum line speed encountered during operation does not cause the pulse output frequency to exceed the maximum frequency of the counter. If the pulse frequency exceeds the counter maximum frequency, the counter may behave erratically.
Example:
Want 5750 pulses/meter Measurement Units are meters/minute Pulses/Length = 5750 x 1000 = 5750000 Command to set the value is: L5750000<CR>
Note: Changing this setting will cause a reset, will reset the indicated length, and will cause the pulse outputs to be momentarily interrupted. Do not change this setting during normal operation.
