[:SOURce[<n>]]:BURSt:NCYCles 
 
Syntax 
[:SOURce[<n>]]:BURSt:NCYCles {<cycles>|MINimum|MAXimum} 
[:SOURce[<n>]]:BURSt:NCYCles? [MINimum|MAXimum] 
 
Description 
Sets the number of cycles in the N cycle burst of the specified channel. 
Queries the number of cycles in the N cycle burst of the specified channel. 
 
Parameter 
<cycles>  Integer 
1 to 1,000,000 (external or manual trigger) 
1 to 500,000 (internal trigger) 
1 
 
Remarks   
  In the N cycle burst mode (
[:SOURce[<n>]]:BURSt:MODE), the signal generator outputs the 
waveform with the specified number of cycles when receiving the trigger signal. 
  When [:SOURce[<n>]] or [<n>] is omitted, the system sets the related parameters of CH1 by default. 
 
Return Format 
The query returns the number of cycles in scientific notation, with 7 effective digits. For example, 
1.000000E+01 (the number of cycles is 10). 
 
Example   
:SOUR1:BURS:NCYC 10    /*Sets the number of cycles in the N cycle burst of CH1 to 10.*/ 
:SOUR1:BURS:NCYC?         /*Queries the number of cycles in the N cycle burst of CH1 and the query 
returns 1.000000E+01.*/ 
 
 
[:SOURce[<n>]]:BURSt:PHASe 
 
Syntax 
[:SOURce[<n>]]:BURSt:PHASe {<phase>|MINimum|MAXimum} 
[:SOURce[<n>]]:BURSt:PHASe? [MINimum|MAXimum] 
 
Description   
Sets the start phase of the burst function of the specified channel. 
Queries the start phase of the burst function of the specified channel. 
 
Parameter 
 
Remarks 
When [:SOURce[<n>]] or [<n>] is omitted, the system sets the related parameters of CH1 by default. 
 
Return Format 
The query returns the start phase in scientific notation, with 7 effective digits. For example, 1.000000E+01 
(the start phase is 10°). 
 
Example   
:SOUR1:BURS:PHAS 10     /*Sets the start phase of the burst function of CH1 to 10°.*/ 
:SOUR1:BURS:PHAS?      /*Queries the start phase of the burst function of CH1 and the query returns 
1.000000E+01.*/
