Hard Pulse Mode
Some applications require the diode to be operated in a pulse mode with long
pulse widths or "hard" pulses. Hard Pulse mode is selected by pressing the
QCW-Mode Select button (Figure 3.10) until the HPulse LED is illuminated. In
this mode, pulsewidth is adjustable from 1 ms to 2 seconds. Duty cycle and
frequency are also adjustable as described previously.

Note: The EXT PULSE OUT output is enabled for all QCW modes.
Note: The EXT PULSE OUT output is designed to drive 50 . Any measurement
equipment connected to this output should be configured for 50 impedance as well.
Otherwise, the output signal may induce extraneous noise in the measurement.
