This flow graph can be used to generate excitation signals for the purpose of tune measurement. Two independend signals for X and Y are supported, and the excitation spectrum is scaled along with the increasing revolution frequency during acceleration based on an RF reference signal.

General notes:
|
|
|
|
* Unhandled errors will cause the GUI to flash red, see console output for details
|
|
|
|
* If you see lots of letters `U`, `O` or `D` printed on the console, this indicates a performance issue.

**Excitation signal**

|
|
- Excitation band width is set in kHz and also shown in tune units

This ensures it will become narrower during ramp to account for increased rigidity

This ensures it will become narrower during ramp to account for increased rigidity. This accounts for reduction in tune spread along the ramp
|
|
|
|
- The fractional tune is set with respect to the revolution frequency
|
|
|
|
Higher order sidebands are supported by values > 1, but best results have been found for baseband, e.g. q < 0.5
|

|
- The signal levels can be set individually, usually Y requires less power

**Output**
|
|
|
|
- Signal bursts are started upon pos. trigger flank for the specified duration
|
|
|
|
A duration of zero means "gated mode", i.e. the burst duration is defined by the trigger pulse duration.

|
|
|
- Signal bursts are started upon positive trigger flank for the specified duration
|
|
|
|
A duration of zero means "gated mode", i.e. the burst duration is defined by the trigger pulse duration. There is some trigger jitter expected (upto 10 ms).
|
|
|
|
You can also manually trigger the device using the toggle button (e.g. for testing)
|
|
|
|
- The output signal (either X or Y, select via menu) can be monitored
|
|
|
|
The DAC is limited to ±1 V and signals are clipped if the level is too large, which results in broadband signals and will saturate the amplifiers.
