are determined by the control settings.
4.4.2.4.4 Control Settings: There are three parameters that can be
set to control the output of the Pulsar 710.
• Current: The current setting determines the brightness of the light
output.
• Pulse Width: This is the length of the output pulse in microseconds.
• Delay: This is the time in microseconds, between detection of a trigger
signal and the start of the output pulse. Each parameter can be set by
adjusting its slider control or by entering the value directly in the text
box. Each slider control has a scale adjustment.
All settings are internally checked by the Pulsar 710 for compatibility with
the attached light head. Settings that will overdrive the light head will not
be allowed. If an unsafe setting is attempted, either the current or the
pulse width will automatically be reduced to a safe level and a message will
be displayed in the status box. The protection setting determines whether
pulse width or current is adjusted.
4.4.2.4.5 Protection: This selection determines what setting, timing or
current, is adjusted to produce a safe setting for the light head.
• Adjust Timing: Pulse width is reduced and current setting will be
maintained, so that the light head is not over driven.
• Adjust Current: Current is reduced and pulse width setting will be
maintained, so that the light head is not over driven.
Note: In some cases current may be adjusted when Adjust Timing is
selected. This happens when the current setting exceeds the absolute
maximum current setting for the light head. In this case current would
be reduced to the absolute maximum current and then timing adjusted
as necessary.
4.4.2.4.6 Triggers: This selection determines which trigger input drives
the selected channel in Pulse, Gated DC and Timing Bypass modes. Use
the edge selection to choose the rising or falling edge.
4.5 Local Control
4.5.1 Controls: There are two primary front panel controls on the
Pulsar 710. These are the mode and variable controls. Figure 10 shows
