• The invert state is saved and recalled correctly as part of Setup and Session files
• Autoset does not affect Invert
• Default sets Invert to Off
AFG configuration menu
Use the AFG configuration menu to set the output signal parameters for the optional arbitrary/function generator. Use the AFG to simulate
signals within a design or add noise to signals to perform margin testing.
To open the AFG configuration menu:
1. Tap the AFG PG > AFG on the Settings bar. The oscilloscope shows the AFG configuration menu. You can change the AFG settings
while the output is Off.
2. Tap Continuous or Burst to add the AFG badge to the Settings bar.
3. Double-tap the AFG badge to open the AFG menu.
Arbitrary/Function Generator overview
The function generator provides output of predefined waveforms up to 50 MHz. Choose between Sine, Square, Pulse, Ramp, DC, Noise,
Sin(x)/x, Gaussian, Lorentz, Exponential Rise, Exponential Decay, Haversine, Cardiac, and Arbitrary signals.
You can also select a predefined waveform or load a saved .wfm- or .csv-format waveform from storage (USB drive, a network drive or
TekDrive on instruments with Windows OS installed).
Arbitrary/Function Generator menu fields and controls
Not all items listed in the table may be shown for all measurements. The configuration menu only shows fields and controls relevant to the
selected Waveform Type.
The output connector is on the front panel, labeled AFG/Aux Out.
Field or control Description
Output Tap to toggle between the output Off, Continuous, or Burst.
Cycles Specify the number of cycles in the text field. Default cycle value is 1.
A
vailable when Output is Burst
When Output is selected as Burst, a Burst button is displayed on the AFG badge. Click the Burst
button on the badge to generate the signal burst.
Waveform Type Tap to select an available waveform from the list.
Load Tap to open the Directory configuration menu. Navigate to and select a waveform file to load into the
AFG memory. You can navigate to TekDrive to load saved waveform files.
Available when Waveform Type is Arbitrary.
Waveform File Shows the loaded waveform file path and name. Tap to select a waveform file to load into the AFG
waveform memory from the drop-down list of the last 20 waveforms that have been loaded using the
Load button.
