Testing the EPC9 EPC9 Manual 22
following built in macro that resets the amplifier, creates a rectangular test pulse, sets
the gain of the amplifier to 5 mV/pA and then performs an automatic compensation
of the voltage offsets:
1 : SET-UP
E Reset: ; reset the amplifier
E PulseAmp: 5.0mV ; set test pulse amplitude
E PulseDur: 5.0ms ; set test pulse duration
E Gain: 10 ; set gain to 5.0 mV/pA
E AutoZero: ; compensate voltage offsets
E SoundOn: TRUE ; beep
E SoundOn: FALSE ;
Note: E9SCREEN has a built in macro interpreter that executes command lines of the
form ”Window Control[: parameter; comment]”. E.g., the line ”E Gain: 10” would
instruct PULSE and E9SCREEN to set the gain popup in the EPC9 window to the
10
th
value (5 mV/pA). The predefined macros are stored in a text file called
”DefaultEpc9.mac” and can be edited with any text editor. For this tutorial it is not
necessary to know all possible commands and their syntax. Therefore, please, refer
to the PULSE manual for a detailed description on how to record and modify
macros.
