4.7.4 Pulse Transients

Pulse transients let you program the output to a specified value for a predetermined amount of
time. At the end of the Pulse transient, the output voltage returns to its previous value.
Parameters required to set up a Pulse transient include the pulse count, pulse period, and pulse
duty cycle. An example of a Pulse transient is shown in Figure 4-40. In this case, the count is 4,
the pulse period is 16.6 ms or 60 Hz and the duty cycle is 33%.

Note that Pulse transients can only be programmed over the bus, not the front panel. Refer to
the SCPI Programming Manual for more information about programming Pulse transients and
triggers.
