How do you create a finite pulse train using a FP-CTR-502?

[Ozfarmboy]

I have recently replaced my FP-PG-522 module with a FP-CTR-502 module, to achieve higher output frequencies (FP-PG-522 max output freq is 5kHz, wheras the FP-CTR-502 max output freq is 16 kHz).

I need to be able to generate a finite pulse train. Has anybody created a finite pulse train using a FP-CTR-502 module before? I have started to look into it, but my ideas so far have been complicated (compared to doing it in a PG module).

Any tips on this would be much appreciated.

I can answer this question myself!

The answer is in the *OLD* version (July 2000) of the operator's manual for the FP-CTR-502. For some reason, this has been removed from the latest version (June 2003).
