Display and Controls



Antenna

The antenna is for the digital transceiver module and it operates in the 868MHz to

923MHz ISM bands.



OLED display

The OLED display is a Blue 128 x 32 pixels pixels screen. When you switch on the

:pulse, all status information, messages, and menus and options are shown on this

LED

The LED to the left of the OLED display acts as a colour-coded status indicator.

Colour Description

Green A flashing green LED shows that wi-fi is off.

Blue A flashing blue LED shows that wi-fi is on.

Red A flashing red LED shows that there are warning messages. The

warning messages are displayed on the OLED.

Simultaneous

Flashing

The LED acts as an indicator for synchronised Timecode Systems

devices. If there are multiple Timecode Systems devices in a

network, their LEDs will flash simultaneously when they are

synchronised. If a device is in the network and has its LED flashing

at a different time to the other devices, that device is not

synchronised.

Control Knob

options, and select options. The control knob acts as a button and a dial.

To turn the :pulse on and off, or to select an option in a menu, you should press the

end of the control knob. You will hear (and feel) the button inside the control knob

press down.

:pulse User Guide 9

To navigate through the available menus and options and to increase or decrease a

value, you should turn the control knob. You can turn the control knob clockwise or

anti-clockwise to cycle through the available options or values.
