Enables the gate by selecting either active high or active low. This function is
independent of any other use of the trigger input. Care should be taken to
ensure that all uses of the trigger input are compatible.
NOTE: The gate function disables the channel from being triggered by the T
0
pulse. To prevent partial pulses from being generated, the gate does not
disable the channel timers. Thus, if a pulse has already started when the gate
disables the channel, the pulse will continue normal output but will not restart
on the next T
0
pulse.
Delaying the Start of Channel Output
Within any channel mode, the output of the channel can be delayed using the
wait parameter (within the CHANNEL menu):
• Wait:
Sets the number of T
0
