1. A remotely-operated control for an electrical pulse generating means of the type including an oscillator portion providing output pulses at a free-running rate and control means operatively connected to said oscillator portion for causing generation of output pulses at a different rate, said remotelyoperated control comprising:

  • a. a remote transmitter for selectively generating a plurality of radio frequency signals having different envelope durations, said transmitter including means for producing said radio frequency signals comprising two pulsating signals of relatively short envelope duration with one pulsating signal having a shorter envelope duration that the other pulsating signal and a continuous signal of longest envelope duration;

    b. means coupled to said pulse generating means and responsive to said radio frequency signals for producing corresponding command signals;

    c. said signal responsive means including means for applying one of said command signals corresponding to one of said pulsating signals to said oscillator portion, said one command signal being a trigger signal having a duration increasing the rate of output pulse generation of said oscillator portion relative to said free-running rate;

    d. said signal responsive means further including means for applying a second one of said command signals corresponding to the other of said pulsating signals to said oscillator portion, said second one of said command signals being a delay signal of duration for decreasing the rate of output pulse generation of said oscillator portion relative to said free-running rate; and

    e. said signal responsive means further including means for applying the third of said command signals corresponding to said continuous signal to said control means, said third of said command signals being an inhibit signal and rendering said control means inoperative for the duration of said signal so that the rate of output pulse generation is at said freerunning rate.
