To output a burst waveform
You can configure the function generator to output a waveform with a
specified number of cycles, called a
burst . You can output the burst at a
rate determined by the internal rate generator or the signal level on the
rear-panel
Ext Trig terminal. For this example, you will output a
three-cycle sine wave. You will not change the other parameters from
their default settings: internal burst source, 0 degree starting phase,
and 100 Hz burst rate.
1 Select the function, frequency, and amplitude for the burst.
For bursts, you can select sine, square, triangle, ramp, or arbitrary
waveforms.
For this example, select a 1 kHz sine wave with an output
amplitude of 5 Vpp .
2 Enable the burst mode.
Notice that the
Burst
annunciator turns on.
3 Use the menu to set the burst count.
After you enable the burst mode, the “recall menu” key will
automatically take you to the
BURST CNT
command in the
MOD MENU
.
