The Burst function has two input tables:
  • input_table
  • time_table [Optional]

    If you omit time_table, you must specify either the TimeInterval or NumPoints argument.

Each row of input_table contains a time interval to be burst. The following table describes the input_table columns that you can specify in function arguments.
