You can also use the APPLy command to select the function, frequency,
amplitude, and offset with a single command.
offset voltage is shown below. Vmax is the maximum peak voltage for the
selected output termination (5 volts for a 50Ω load or 10 volts for a
high-impedance load).
Vpp < 2 × (Vmax – | Voffset |)
setting, the displayed output amplitude will be adjusted (and no error will be
generated). For example, if you set the amplitude to 10 Vpp and then change
the output termination from 50 ohms to "high impedance", the amplitude
displayed on the function generator's front-panel will double to 20 Vpp. If you
change from "high impedance" to 50 ohms, the displayed amplitude will drop
in half. For more information, see
determined by the output units selected. This may occur when the 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 waves in Vrms).
