SENSOR
PULSE IS:
Measure Gate MEASUREMENT cell of GFC Wheel HIGH
Measure Dark Gate MEASUREMENT Cell of GFC Wheel LOW
Reference Gate REFERENCE cell of GFC Wheel HIGH
Reference Dark Gate REFERENCE cell of GFC Wheel LOW
Timing for activating the Sample and Hold Circuits is provided by a Phase Lock Loop
(PLL) circuit. Using the segment sensor output as a reference signal the PLL generates
clock signal at ten times that frequency. This faster clock signal is used by the PLD to
make the Sample and Hold Circuits capture the signal during the center portions of the
detected waveform, ignore the rising and falling edges of the detector signal.

6.4.3.2 SYNC/DEMOD STATUS LEDS
The following two status LEDs located on the sync/demod board provide additional
diagnostic tools for checking the GFC Wheel rotation.
