When operating in pulse mode can the Panther 9000 receiver operate with both pulsed Sig and Ref IF inputs?
Yes, it is OK to pulse both the signal and reference IF channels on a Panther system. However, if the pulse width is less than 1 µs there may be an issue with time alignment of the pulse. The NSI pulse profile script has a selection for the reference: pulsed or CW. The technique used to modulate the RF signal is also important. If the RF source is modulated directly then both Sig and Ref IF signals will be modulated. Alternately, a PIN switch may be used to modulate the source so that the Sig IF input is modulated and the Ref IF input is CW.
