To Output Basic Waveforms

Click the AWG label
the [GEN] connector on the rear panel, and enter the Function/Arbitrary Waveform
Generator setting interface. DS8000-R series' built-in Function/Arbitrary Waveform
Generator can output a variety of basic waveforms, including Sine, Square, Ramp,
Pulse, DC, Noise, Sinc, Exp.Rise, Exp.Fall, ECG, Gauss, Lorentz, Haversine, and Arb.

To Output Sine

Click Wave to select "Sine". At this time, you can set the parameters for the sine
waveform.
1. Set the frequency or period
Click the Frequency/Period menu to select "Frequency" or "Period". Select the
desired item, and use the pop-up numeric keypad or scroll with the mouse to set
the frequency or period value of the current signal. Different waveforms have
different frequency or period (reciprocal of the frequency) ranges.
Sine: 100 mHz to 25 MHz
Square: 100 mHz to 15 MHz
Ramp: 100 mHz to 100 kHz
Pulse: 100 mHz to 1 MHz
DC and Noise: no frequency parameter.
2. Set the amplitude or high level
Click the Amplitude/High Level menu to select "Amplitude" or "High Level".
Select the desired item, and use the pop-up numeric keypad or scroll with the
mouse to set the amplitude or high level value of the current signal. Note that if
you select "Amplitude" for this menu, then the menu below the Amplitude is
automatically turns out to be "Offset"; if you select "High Level" for this menu,
then the menu below the High Level is automatically turns out to be "Low
Level". When Impedance is set to "HighZ", the available range of the amplitude is
from 20 mVpp to 5 Vpp; when Impedance is set to "50Ω", the available range of
the amplitude is from 10 mVpp to 2.5 Vpp.
3. Set the offset or low level
Click the Offset/Low Level menu to select "Offset" or "Low Level". Select the
desired item, and use the pop-up numeric keypad or scroll with the mouse to set
the offset or low level value of the current signal. When Impedance is set to
"HighZ", the available range of the offset is from (-2.5 V+currently set amplitude
value/2) to (2.5 V- currently set amplitude value/2); when Impedance is set to
"50Ω", the available range of the offset is from (-1.25 V+currently set amplitude
value/2) to (1.25 V- currently set amplitude value/2).
