I managed to find an old document that details the output from the driver
and the pulses I generated.

I tried it with 2 different pulse characteristics :
- Pulse width of 15 μs and PRF equal to 1000 Hz
- Pulse width of 15 μs and PRF equal to 3000 Hz
Image below details the second signal (PRF = 3kHz).

This is some log when detecting the first signal

This is some log when detecting the second signal

You can see the driver recognizes the PRF quite well.


I hope this helps a bit,
Jawad
