At this point, pressing the X10 button again would increase the delay to 3.00us, pressing it again increments it to 30.0us, etc. An additional function is that if it is held while changing ANY frequency value, after multiplying the value by a factor of ten, if the encoder is moved it will increase/decrease at a much faster rate. This makes the switching frequ

PDG-2515/2520 Operating Manual The PDG-2515 accepts input voltages of 90-264VAC, 47-63Hz. Example Setup The default setup is 1 kHz, with zero delay and 100 us pulse on both channels. The pulse in not inverted and the pulse mode is in continuous pulse generation mode which means that pulse count is not available. By pressing the OUTPUT button on the front panel you will see these pulses on the respective outputs. Turning the encoder with the pulses enabled and the unit will sweep the fr

PDG-2515/2520 Operating Manual change is accomplished by using the encoder while holding the 10X button down. Power-Up Procedures The unit should be powered up using the following procedures: Connect OUT 1 and/or OUT 2 to an appropriate load using 50 Ohm coaxial cable (See Section 6.0). Plug the AC power cord into the PDG-2515, and into an appropriate AC socket. Turn on the PDG-2515 by pressing the power button on the rear of the unit located above the power entry .

Enabling and disabling a channel can also happen on the fly in pulse generation and Divide By N modes. In pulse count mode this needs to be set before hand so the unit does not sit in an unknown state if it has not finished it’s count set, therefore, the unit will not allow it to be changed while pulsing. In Burst mode, disabling the channel is not avail
