Repetition rate RR
Table 3.2 lists the different repetition rates provided. If a setting other than those listed is
entered the unit will select and display the closest setting below the entered value (e.g., an
entry of 390 Hz will result in a repetition rate of 250 Hz.)
If a rep. rate setting is entered which would result in a burst width exceeding 1% duty
cycle the unit will recalculate the burst width based on the new rep rate and display the
new P.W. in cycles and μs (USEC). The message ‘MAX DUTY CYCLE’ will be
displayed.
NOTE: Arrow keys cannot be used to change the RR setting. The desired RR
setting must be entered in using the numeric key pad. For example, to change the
repetition rate to 50 Hz, you must press ENTER 0 0 0 5 0 0 0 ENTER. See Table 2.1 for
the available repetition rates from the internal signal generator.
