Pressing the
RUN/STOP
key will now generate a continuous stream of pulses.
To Use Channel Single Shot Function
The Single Shot mode generates a single pulse every time the
RUN/STOP
key
is pressed. To use the Single Shot mode:
- within the
Channel
menus
Enable
Select Enable to enable channel output.
Delay
Set the desired delay.
Width
Set the desired pulsewidth.
Mode
Select the Single shot mode.
To Use Channel Burst Mode Function
The Burst mode generates a burst of pulses every time the
RUN/STOP
key is
pressed. To use the Burst mode:
-within the
Channel
menus

#/Burst
Set the number of pulses to produce in the burst.
To Use the Channel Duty Cycle Function
To generate a stream of pulses which oscillates on for n pulses and off for m
pulses:
- within the
Channel
menus
Enable
Select Enable to enable channel output.
Delay
Set the desired delay.
Width
Set the desired pulsewidth.
Mode
Select the Duty Cycle mode.
On Cycle
Set the number of pulses to produce during the on

Off Cycle
Set the number of pulses to skip during the off cycle.
Note: Older Quantum Composers pulse generators had a divide-by-n func-
tion. The duty cycle mode is a more general case. To reproduce the divide-
by-n function, set the on cycle to 1 and set the off cycle to (n-1), where n is
the divide-by-n factor.
