    Engineering Units determined by the value of the Pulse Width equations. When a one-shot output is called to be ON, the Flex Com- biner will run this equation and use the resulting value as the number of seconds the output will pulse ON. Like delay equations, pulse width equations most com- monly will only be constant values, since there is usually little need for variance in one-shot pulse width.
