Pulse mode
Pulse mode generates a load change that returns to its original state after some time period.
It is similar to continuous operation with the following exceptions:
ā To get a pulse, an explicit trigger is required.
ā One pulse results from each trigger. Therefore, frequency cannot be programmed. The pulse width is
programmable.
Step 1ā Configure the sequence properties
Configure the Sequencer Pulse accordingly. Refer to the below table for details.

Fix, Stp, or Lst Sets the current/voltage/resistance/power mode. This determines what happens to the
input current/voltage/resistance/power when the system is initiated or triggered.
Default is Fix.
Action required:
Press Curr Mode, Volt Mode, Res Mode, or Pow Mode to toggle between Fix, Stp, and Lst.
Fix (Fixed) Keeps the input at its immediate value.
Stp (Step) Steps the input to the triggered level when a trigger occurs
Lst (List) Causes the input to follow the list values when a trigger occurs.
