FUNC
(A/B/C)
sets
the
duration
(from
0
to
600
seconds)
that
the
voltage
generator
remains
ON
at
the
specified
output
voltage
level
before
moving
to
another
voltage
level.
6.2.1
Set
FUNC
(A/B/C):
1.
Enter
the
Δ
V/
Δ
t
setting
first
(Refer
to
the
Set
Mode
section
4.3.)
2.
Turn
the
Voltage
control
knob
to
select
the
desired
function
and
then
turn
the
Current
control
knob
to
set
the
time
period
(0
to
600
seconds)
for
the
chosen
voltage
level.
3.
Pressing
the
Current
control
knob
toggles
coarse
and
fine
tuning
of
the
time
period.
4.
To
generate
waveforms,
the
Func
A/B/C
button
is
used
in
conjunction
with
Δ
V/
Δ
t
button
(the
time
period
from
one
voltage
level
to
another
voltage
level)
5.
Using
the
above
functions
simultaneously,
3
reversible
pairs
(AB
&
BA,
BC
&
CB,
AC
&
CA)
can
be
used
to
generate
waveforms.
Example
1:
Pulse
waveform
with
3sec
at
10V
and
1sec
at
5V.
Set
A
(Preset
1)
=
5V,
set
B
(Preset
2)
=
10V
Set
Func
A
=
1
second
by
turning
the
Current
control
knob
Func
B
=
3
seconds
using
the
same
procedure
as
above
Set
Δ

Generating
Wave
Form
To
generate
the
waveform
push
SHIFT
and
then
press
the
Δ
V/
Δ
t
button
The
waveform
will
repeat
cyclically
until
the
SHIFT
button
and
then
the
Δ
V/
Δ
t
button
is
pressed.
Example
2:
Triangle
waveform
Set
A
=
5V,
B
=
10
V
Set
Δ
t
a
‐
b
=
3
seconds,
Set
Δ
t
b
‐
a
=
3
seconds
Set
Func.
A
=
3
seconds,
Set
Func.
B
=
3
seconds
Note:
The
waveform
generator
can
be
operated
via
the
remote
programming
software
(with
waveform
preview
and
graphical
datalogging
output
presentation
features).
Details
are
provided
in
the
section
4
titled
‘PC
Software
Program’.
Please
verify
that
the
Preset
keys
are
both
lit
and
that
one
is
flashing.
The
flashing
light
will
jump
from
one
to
the
other,
A
to
B,
then
B
to
A.
The
waveform
will
repeat
cyclically
until
SHIFT
and
then
Δ
V/
Δ
t
are
pressed
again.
Examples
3,
4,
and
5
are
provided
in
Appendix
A
later
in
this
guide.
