Introduced is a new translator for the open source pulse sequence programming toolbox, Pulseq. Unique from previous translator units developed, this translator takes the Pulseq output file and generates a time-bin based, delimited pulse sequence table. This format is specific to the target system, a homebuilt broadband spectrometer. Our lab uses multiple scanners, and using Pulseq enables seamless transition between a conventional research scanner, a Varian Unity Inova or a prototype homebuilt spectrometer. Ultimately, this translator is not only a useful tool, but it introduces the possibility of facilitating a direct comparison of homebuilt systems with their commercial counterparts.
