Front-panel Operation
1.
Select your desired function by pressing one of the function keys.
2.
Press the softkey under Freq/Perd and make sure Freq is
highlighted (indicating the frequency mode is selected).
3.
Use the numeric keypad or the knob with cursor keys to change
the value.

Notes
•
Each waveform function has its own frequency range, but the
default frequency is 1 kHz for all functions. The table below lists
the frequency ranges for different functions:
Function Frequency
Range
Sine 1
μ
Hz ~ 50 MHz
Square 1
μ
Hz ~ 25 MHz
Ramp 1
μ
Hz ~ 200 kHz
Pulse 500
μ
Hz ~ 10 MHz
Arbitrary 1
μ
Hz ~ 10
MHz
•
Frequency limitation: When you choose a new function and the
current frequency setting is larger than the maximum frequency
of the new function, the waveform generator will automatically
adjust the frequency to the smaller maximum value.
•
Burst limitation: For internally-triggered bursts, the minimum
frequency is 2.001 mHz. For sine and square waveforms,
frequencies above 10 MHz are allowed only with an “infinite” burst
count.
•
Duty Cycle Limitation: There are some limits on duty cycle for
square waveforms. When the frequency is greater than 10 MHz,
the range of the duty cycle is 40% to 60%. For other frequencies,
the range of the duty cycle is 20% to 80%. If you set an
out-of-limit duty cycle, the waveform generator will adjust
automatically to the maximum value of the duty cycle limit range.
