Function Blocks Command Reference Appendix D
Pulse Generator Figure 81 - Pulse Generator Function Block Diagram
The Pulse Generator function block generates an On/Off pulse output at the
output enable signal while the function block’s input signal is on.
The pulse’s on-time and off-time can be set independently between 10 ms and 3
seconds in 10 ms increments. When the on-time is set to 100 ms and the off-time
is set to 500 ms, the signal will be repeatedly turned on for 100 ms and then off
for 500 ms.
The output pulse width will have a timing error equivalent to the cycle time of
the SmartGuard controller. For example, if the SmartGuard controller’s cycle
time is 7 ms and the pulse width is set to 100 ms, the output pulse will be
anywhere between 93 and 107 ms.
