Output Configuration
This section describes the output channel configuration. Many commands associated with the output configuration
starts with SOURce1: or SOURce2: to indicate a certain channel. If omitted, the default is channel 1. For example,
VOLT 2.5 sets the output on channel 1 to 2.5 V, and SOUR2:VOLT2.5 does the same for channel 2.
The instrument's display includes a "tab" for each channel that summarizes various aspects of each channel's output
configuration:
On a dual-channel instrument, the tab for channel 1 is in yellow, and the tab for channel 2 is in green.
Output Function
The instrument includes eight standard waveforms: sine, square, ramp, pulse, triangle, noise, PRBS (pseudorandom
binary sequence), and DC. There are also nine built-in arbitrary waveforms.
The table below shows which functions are allowed (●) with modulation, sweep, and burst. Selecting a function that
is not allowed with a modulation or mode disables the modulation or mode.
