6.2.5 Sync. Output Signals properties<br />

6.2.6 Checking for encoder pulses<br />

Figure 6-38 Synchronisation output properties for LDA processor (left) <strong>and</strong><br />

PDA proecessor (right)<br />

Two types of TTL signals can be mapped to the connectors “Programmable<br />

Output 1” or “S1”:<br />

A Burst Detector signal from one of the velocity channels, or a<br />

Measurement Running signal. Note that for PDA processor, LDA<br />

channels are mounted on the slot 1, 4 <strong>and</strong> 5 of the processor for respectively<br />

one, two <strong>and</strong> three velocity componenets sytems. Extra channels are for<br />

future development.<br />

The Burst Detector signal is a TTL signal which is high for the duration of<br />

the burst. It is delayed by approx. 8 ms to the photo-multiplier signal.<br />

The Measurement running signal is a TTL signal which is high during<br />

acquisition. This can be used for gating external equipment during LDA data<br />

acquisition.<br />

The connector "Programmable Output 2" is called BNC 2(Shutter) in the<br />

software. It is used to control the shutter in PDA receiving optics<br />

(calibration).<br />

If an encoder is connected to the Sync. 1 or Sync. 2, open the System<br />

Monitor window. A bar graph will show the arrival rate of the Sync pulses:<br />

Sync 1 <strong>and</strong> Sync 2<br />
