several microseconds with temperature and aging. This drift may be relatively slow, but
inconvenient to compensate.

Dynamic Delay Compensation mode is useful for taming the timing of these instruments. In this
mode, you send a “trigger” pulse when you want to trigger a device, followed by an “indicator”
pulse that shows the actual duration of the device’s function, perhaps from a sensor. The channel
measures the actual delay between the trigger pulse and the indicator pulse. It then adjusts the
applied delay between the trigger pulse and output pulse so that the delay between the trigger and
indicator pulse is precisely the specified Desired Delay.

Dynamically Delay Compensation mode includes several properties tabs.
