In the following figure, the configuration shown in the waveform previewer for Channel 1 uses the
default settings for KPulse (pulse high = 1 V and pulse low = 0 V). Channel 2 uses the same settings,
but the complement mode is enabled. Pulse high goes to pulse low level (0 V) and pulse low goes to
pulse high level (1 V).
The following instructions describe how to use KPulse for a standard pulse output. Repeat these
steps for any installed cards that you want to set to standard pulse.
Figure 102: Standard pulse operation settings
Set waveform, trigger, output, and general settings:
1. Select the pulse card tab (in this example, PMU1).
2. For the Waveform Type, select Pulse.
3. For the Trigger Source, select External.
4. Select the Trigger Source type - Per Pulse Rising, Initial Falling, Initial Rising, or Per Pulse
Falling.
5. For the Output Mode, select Continuous Mode or Burst Mode.
6. Under General Settings, set the Pulse Period in seconds.
7. Set the Trigger Polarity to Positive or Negative.
8. Select how to apply the changes by doing one of the following:
▪ Select Apply Changes Immediately to enable automatic update for pulse output. After the
outputs are turned on, the pulse output updates immediately when the settings are changed.
▪ Select Apply Settings (the button with the light blue arrow) to manually apply settings.
