Operation Modes 41
6.2.1 Continuous Transient Mode
A continuous transient generates a respective pulse stream that toggles between two load levels. Upon
receiving a trigger the load will continuously switch between the A/B levels preset as shown in Figure 6.2.1.

Freq/Period
The period value represents the time it takes for a periodic waveform to complete one full cycle or
repetition. The period is set in seconds and is inversely proportional to the frequency of the waveform.
A shorter period indicates a higher frequency and faster repetition of the waveform, while a longer period
signies a lower frequency and slower repetition.
Duty Cycle
Duty cycle value refers to the ratio of time that a periodic waveform spends in the "on" state compared to
the total period of the waveform. It describes the proportion or percentage of time that a signal or pulse
is active or high during each cycle.
The duty cycle is expressed as a percentage where a duty cycle of 50% means the signal is active for
half of the period, and a duty cycle of 100% indicates that the signal remains active for the entire period.
Conversely, a duty cycle of 0% means the signal is always inactive. The duty cycle can only be set
between 01% and 99%.
