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 optional built-in arbitrary
waveforms or create your own custom waveforms. You can internally modulate
sine and square waveforms using AM or FM (but not ramp, pulse, noise, dc, or
arbitrary). You can also modulate pulse using PWM. Linear or logarithmic
frequency sweeping is available for sine, square, and ramp waveforms (but not
pulse, noise, dc, or arbitrary). You can generate a burst waveform using sine,
square, and ramp waveforms (but not pulse, noise, dc, or arbitrary). 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.
