[:SOURce]:FUNCtion[1|2]:PULSe:DCYCle[?]
Set the pulse duty cycle in percent. The pulse duty cycle is defined as: Duty
Cycle = 100 X Pulse Width ÷ Period where the pulse width represents the
time from the start of the rising edge of the pulse to the start of the next
falling edge. The pulse duty cycle range is 0 percent to 100 percent.
However, the pulse duty cycle is limited by the minimum pulse width and
edge time restrictions, which prevent you from setting exactly 0 percent or
100 percent.
This command is affected by the :PULS:HOLD[1|2] command, which
determines the value to be held constant as the period is adjusted: the
specified pulse width value, or the specified pulse duty cycle value, or the
specifies trailing delay. See the :PULS:HOLD[1|2] command for further
information.
