To use this command you must first specify an ARB shape and type using the
[SOURce:]ARB:FUNCtion:SHAPe and the [SOURce:]ARB:FUNCtion:TYPE commands.
Parameter Typical Return
(none) (none)
The following command converts the ARB previously specified on channel 1:
ARB:CURR:CONV (@1)
ARB:VOLT:CONV (@1)
l If the ARB function of the specified channel is already set to a user-defined current waveform, the
command is ignored and the conversion is not performed.
l If the ARB function of the specified channel is set to "NONE", the command is ignored and the con-
version is not performed.
[SOURce:]ARB:FUNCtion:SHAPe <function>, (@<chanlist>)
[SOURce:]ARB:FUNCtion:SHAPe? (@<chanlist>)
This command replaces the previous [SOURce:]ARB:FUNCtion command and should be
used in new applications. [SOURce:ARB:FUNCtion is used for backward compatibility.
Sets the function of the arbitrary waveform generator as follows:
STEP Specifies a step
RAMP Specifies a ramp
STAircase Specifies a staircase
SINusoid Specifies a sinewave
PULSe Specifies a pulse
TRAPezoid Specifies a trapezoid
EXPonential Specifies a exponential waveform
UDEFined Specifies a user-defined waveform
CDWell Specifies a constant-dwell waveform
SEQuence Specifies a sequence of arbitrary waveforms
NONE Specifies no arbitrary waveform
Parameter Typical Return
STEP | RAMP | STAircase | SINusoid | PULSe | TRAPezoid | EXPonential
| UDEFined | CDWell | SEQuence |NONE, *RST NONE
STEP, RAMP, STA, SIN, PULS, TRAP, EXP,
or UDEF.
Specify a step on channel 1: ARB:FUNC:SHAP STEP, (@1)
