Hi,

Using Delogger and a DT800 is it possible to use an analogue channel (radiometer logging at 1 sec) to trigger another analogue channel (laser logging at 1 sec) into burst mode for a period of 60 secs and then stop it again.

What I am doing is, using a radiometer I am measuring radiation kW/m2, when this reaches a certain value I want to be able to put a laser into burst mode for a period of 60 sec and then stop it again.

Thanks for any help

Hi Sean,

The quickest way to do it is to put the burst schedule in a separate schedule and call it with an alarm.

The first thing is to read the channel and assign it to a Channel Variable (CV), then use an Alarm to trigger the burst schedule with and action of XB.

The Burst sits in the B schedule and will only run when the alarm send the XB.

The equivalent DeTransfer code would be something like this.

RA1S

1V(=1CV)
ALARM1(1CV>0.5){[XB]}

RBX;BURST()
2V
END

Cheers,
Roger
