This sub-section is a guide to the use of the 9100 for generating a rectangular wave with
required repetition rate and percentage duty cycle. The following topics are covered:
4.11.2 Selection of % Duty function.
4.11.2.1 'Hz' Key.
4.11.2.2 Default Settings.
4.11.3 Screen Keys.
4.11.3.1 Bottom Screen Keys.
4.11.3.2 Right Side Screen Keys.
4.11.4 Value Editing.
4.11.4.1 '% Duty Cycle' and 'Period' Time-Interval,
High and Low Voltage Levels.
4.11.4.2 % Duty Cycle Editing.
4.11.4.3 'Period' Time-Interval Editing.
4.11.4.4 'Period' Time-Interval Ranges and Limits.
4.11.5 Crossing Thresholds.
4.11.5.1 No '% Duty Cycle' Resolution Thresholds.
4.11.5.2 'Period' Time-Interval Resolution Thresholds.
4.11.5.3 Analog Hardware Configurations.
4.11.6 % Duty Routines for Calibrating UUTs.
4.11.6.1 Interconnections

In this sub-section, we deal with the full range of '% Duty' facilities, in a concise way. For
those who require more detailed instructions for manipulating the front panel controls,
the DC Voltage function was used as an example for the general familiarization tutorials
in Section 3.
