Waveform Generation Commands
These commands generate a 128 point waveform of the specified type. The
number of cycles in the waveform is random. It can take 5 to 15 seconds to
generate the waveform depending on the format and type of the waveform.
Typically ASCII waveforms take longer than integer waveforms.
SOURce:FUNCtion
SINusoid
Sine waveform (Default)
SQUare
Square waveform
NOISe
Noisy sine waveform
RANDom
Random noise waveform
PCHirp
Chirp waveform
SOURce:FUNCtion?
Returns the current
waveform type
Example :
SOUR:FUNC SIN
Generate a sinusoid waveform
SOUR:FUNC?
Query the current waveform
type. For example, if the
command was issued after the
preceding command, it would
return
SOUR:FUNC SIN<LF>
Waveform Query Commands
SENSe:DATA?
Returns the waveform data in the
format specified by the waveform
format commands
SENSe:VOLTage:RANGe:OFFSet?
Returns the Y offset for the
waveform in ASCII floating point
SENSe:VOLTage:RANGe?
Returns the Y multiplier for the
waveform in ASCII floating point
SENSe:SWEep:TIME?
Returns the X increment (1E-3) in
ASCII floating point
