Output Configuration
This section contains information to help you configure the function
generator for outputting waveforms. You may never have to change some
of the parameters discussed here, but they are provided to give you the
flexibility you might need.
Output Function
The function generator can output five standard waveforms including
sine, square, ramp, pulse, and noise. You can also select one of five
built-in arbitrary waveforms or create your own custom waveforms.
You can internally modulate any of the standard waveforms (except
pulse and noise) and also arbitrary waveforms using AM, FM, or FSK.
Linear or logarithmic frequency sweeping is available for any of the
standard waveforms (except pulse and noise) and also arbitrary
waveforms. You can generate a burst waveform using any of the
standard waveforms and also arbitrary waveforms. The default function
is sine wave.
• The table below shows which output functions are allowed with
modulation, sweep, and burst. Each " • " indicates a valid combination.
If you change to a function that is not allowed with modulation,
sweep, or burst, then the modulation or mode is turned off.
