AFX Series Power Source Operation Manual
Purpose
These selections created specific waveform types without having to define data values
manually. Following functions are available from this drop-down:
NORMALIZE Normalizes waveform for zero DC offset.
RECTIFY Rectifies the waveform. Only positive data points remain. This implies a
DC offset which is shown in the DC display field below the graph.
FREQ MULTIPLY Creates specified number of periods to multiply fundamental frequency.
Use caution with resulting higher frequency waveforms as power source
has a finite bandwidth and output may fault if too much high frequency
content is present.
OFFSET Applies specified DC offset.
SCALE Multiplies all data points by scale factor value.
VERTICAL FLIP Flips waveform vertically.
HORIZONTAL FLIP Flips waveform horizontally.
SMOOTHING FILTER Smooths sharp edges to reduce bandwidth requirements.
PRESET Selects built-in waveform types based on user parameters.
The following PRESET waveforms are available:
NONE Default or no selection made.
SINE, TRIANGLE, SQUARE, 6 STEPS, 12 STEPS, SINE POWER, CLIPPED SINE, SAWTOOTH,
PULSE, IMPORTED WAVEFORM
The following parameters are settable for each PRESET selection:
HARMONIC H1 through H32
SCALE Vertical Scale Multiplier
PHASE Start phase angle
OFFSET DC Offset
EXPONENT 1 through 51. Applies to SINE POWER present only.
THD 0% through 100%. Applies to CLIPPED SINE only.
RISE TIME 0° through 360°. Applies to PULSE preset only.
PULSE WIDTH 0° through 360°. Applies to PULSE preset only.
FALL TIME 0° through 360°. Applies to PULSE preset only.
LOAD FROM FILE Available for IMPORTED WAVEFORM preset only.
ADD Add to existing waveform (summation)
REPLACE Replace existing waveform with selected PRESET
