The [SOURce:]FUNCtion
(arbitrary, sinusoid, etc.) the HP E1340A generates. For arbitrary waveform
generation, the subsystem controls which of the seven possible segment
sequences are selected.

HP E1340A generates, shown as follows:
DC: Generates a DC output voltage.
Generates a stepped ramp. The
RAMP:
controls the polarity.
SINusoid: Generates a sinusoidal voltage.
Generates a square wave.
SQUare:
TRIangle: Generates a stepped triangle wave.
Generates an arbitrary waveform. The
USER:
SOURce:FUNCtion:USER
to be generated.
Selecting a shape other than DC or USER causes the voltage data contained
in waveform segment "D" to be overwritten by the voltage data for the
selected waveform shape. Segment "D" must be reloaded before it can be
output as part of a segment sequence.
