Output Configuration
This section contains information to help you configure the function
generator for outputting waveforms. You may never have to change some
of the parameters discussed here, but they are provided to give you the
flexibility you might need.
Output Function
The function generator can output five standard waveforms (sine,
square, ramp, pulse, and noise), plus dc. You can also select one of five
built-in arbitrary waveforms or create your own custom waveforms. You
can internally modulate sine, square, ramp, and arbitrary waveforms
using AM, FM, PM, or FSK. You can also modulate pulse using PWM.
Linear or logarithmic frequency sweeping is available for sine, square,
ramp, and arbitrary waveforms. You can generate a burst waveform
using any of the standard or arbitrary waveforms (but not dc). The
default function is sine wave.
• The table below shows which output functions are allowed with
modulation, sweep, and burst. Each " • " indicates a valid combination.
If you change to a function that is not allowed with modulation,
sweep, or burst, then the modulation or mode is turned off.
