This section describes the low-level commands used to program the function
generator to output a pulse waveform. To select the pulse function, use the
FUNC PULS command (see page 189). Refer to the diagram below for the
command descriptions that follow.

PULSe:PERiod {<seconds>|MINimum|MAXimum}
PULSe:PERiod? [MINimum|MAXimum]
Set the period for pulses. Select a period from 200 ns to 1000 seconds.
The default is 1 ms. MIN = 200 ns. MAX = 1000 seconds. The PULS:PER? query
returns the period of the pulse waveform in seconds.
– The specified period must be greater than the sum of the pulse width and the

edge time. The function generator will adjust the edge time and the pulse
width as needed to accommodate the specified period. From the remote
interface, a "Settings conflict" error will be generated. The edge time is
minimized first, and then the width (or duty cycle) is adjusted as shown below.
Period > Pulse Width + (1.6 × Edge Time)
or in terms of pulse duty cycle:
Period > (Period × Duty Cycle ÷ 100) + (1.6 × Edge Time)
