To Output a Stored Arbitrary Waveform
Note:
Arbitrary waveforms are optionally available with the 33210A
(Option 002). To upgrade your 33210A to include arbitrary waveform
functionality, go to
www.keysight.com/find/33210U
.
There are five built-in arbitrary waveforms stored in non-volatile memory.
The following steps show you how to output the built-in “exponential fall”
waveform from the front panel.
1 Select the arbitrary waveform function.
When you press the key to select the arbitrary waveform function,
a temporary message is displayed indicating which waveform is currently
selected (the default is “exponential rise”).
2 Select the active waveform.
Press the
Select Wform
softkey and then press the
Built-In
softkey to
select from the five built-in waveforms. Then press the
Exp Fall
softkey.
The waveform is output using the present settings for frequency,
amplitude, and offset unless you change them.
The selected waveform is now assigned to the key. Whenever you
press this key, the selected arbitrary waveform is output. To quickly
determine which arbitrary waveform is currently selected, press
.
For information on creating a custom arbitrary waveform, refer to “To
Create and Store an Arbitrary Waveform” on page 113 .
