Operator's Manual Simple AFG Application
Input / Output Channels
The T3AWG-3K has 2/4/8 independent analog channels. Each channel is a single-ended output and it is
provided on a BNC connector located on the front instrument panel (CH1 OUTPUT to CHN OUTPUT).
The Marker Out is a digital output signal provided on a BNC connector located on the front instrument
panel (MARKER OUT N).
It is available one marker out BNC for each couple of channels on the front panel.
Depending on the instrument model, it is possible to choose in the software the channel it is related to
(CH1/CH2), (CH3/CH4), (CH5/CH6), (CH7/CH8).
The Trigger In is an input signal provided on a BNC connector located on the front instrument panel
(TRIGGER IN).
The External Modulation Input is an input signal provided on a SMA connector located on the rear
instrument panel (Ext. Mod. In).
The Trigger In and the External Modulation Input signals are common input sources for every instrument
channels.
Analog Output Channel
The term Output Channel, as used in this user manual, refers to the analog signal provided on the BNC
output connector located on the front instrument panel.
For some parameters the Simple AFG application supports different input formats. For example, it is
possible to specify the frequency of a waveform or alternatively it is possible to specify the
corresponding time period. It is possible to switch between two different parameter formats by just
touching the parameter label.
Note that the input format is the same for all channels, so if the High/ Low Level format is selected for
the channel 1, the channel 2, .... the channel N, will use that format as well.
Main Parameters
The set of available parameters depends on the selected waveform.
The Simple AFG application provides the control of the vertical (voltage) parameters of the Output
channel in the format Amplitude [Vpp] / Offset[V] or in the format Voltage High[V] / Voltage Low[V] or
in the format Amplitude [Vrms] / Offset[V] or in the format Amplitude[dBm] / Offset[V].
