Programmable Pulse Output (59551A Only)
5-88 Operating and Programming Guide
59551A
This command identifies the time when the individual pulse (or first pulse of
the pulse sequence) is generated at the Programmable Pulse output.
Expanded Syntax
:PULSe:STARt:TIME <hour>,<minute>,<second>
Parameter
Three fields are separated by commas: <hour>,<minute>, <second>.
• The <hour> range is 0 to 23.
• The <minute> range is 0 to 59.
• The <second> range is 0 to 59.
Context Dependencies
If you select a date and time which occurs prior to the current time or prior to
the completion of powerup and first GPS lock, the Receiver will not successfully
find a start—and therefore will produce no pulses.
If the Receiver has been set up to use a time zone offset to produce local date
and time, the parameters provided should also be expressed as local date and
time.
