less than that of the current function, the frequency is adjusted to the
maximum value for the new function. For example, if you are currently
outputting a 10 MHz sine wave and then change to the ramp function, the
function generator will automatically adjust the output frequency to 100 kHz
(the upper limit for ramps). From the remote interface, a "Settings conflict" error
will be generated and the frequency will be adjusted as described.
is less than that of the current function, the amplitude is automatically
adjusted to the maximum value for the new function. This may occur when the
output units are Vrms or dBm due to the differences in crest factor for the
various output functions.
For example, if you output a 5 Vrms square wave (into 50 ohms) and then
change to the sine wave function, the function generator will automatically
adjust the output amplitude to 3.536 Vrms (the upper limit for sine in Vrms).
From the remote interface, a "Settings conflict" error will be generated and the
amplitude will be adjusted as described.
