How to adjust the frequency output period (TSX CTY2C)
(Original Document)
At a Glance
The TSX CTY2C module has a Q3 output which can be programmed in automatic mode to generate an adjustable period signal, destined for various uses (for example: synchronization of several channels or modules).
Output configuration (automatic or manual) is controlled by the application, but it is possible to modify it temporarily in the Debugging screen.
Parameters for the signal period are set under the Frequency output heading in the adjustment screen.
Procedure
The table below summarizes the procedure for adjusting the frequency output signal period.
