Using The Instrument 3-5
The command:
APPLy:RAMP {<frequency>,<amplitude>,<offset>,
<delay>, <rise_time>,<fall_time>}
programs the synthesizer to output a ramp waveform with
frequency, amplitude, offset, delay, rise time, and fall time
parameters. The default settings for these functions are: 1 MHz, 5
Vp-p, 0 V, 0%, 10% and 10%.
The command:
APPLy:SINC {<frequency>,<amplitude>,<offset>,
<number_cycles>}
programs the synthesizer to output a sine(x)/x waveform with
frequency, amplitude, offset, and number of cycles parameters.
The default settings for these functions are: 1 MHz, 5 Vp-p, 0 V and
10.
The command:
APPLy:EXPonential <frequency>,<amplitude>,<offset>,
<exponent>}
programs the synthesizer to output an exponential waveform with
frequency, amplitude, offset, and exponent parameters. The default
settings for these functions are: 1 MHz, 5 Vp-p, 0 V and -10.
The command:
APPLy:GAUSsian {<frequency>,<amplitude>,<offset>,
<exponent>}
programs the synthesizer to output a gaussian waveform with
frequency, amplitude, offset, and exponent parameters. The default
settings for these functions are: 1 MHz, 5 Vp-p, 0 V and 10.
The command:
APPLy:DC {<percent_amplitude>}
programs the synthesizer to output a DC level. The DC level is set
as a percent of programmed amplitude. The default setting for this
function is 100%.
The command:
APPLy:USER {<segment_number>,<sampling_clock>,
<amplitude>,<offset>}
programs the synthesizer to output an arbitrary waveform. The
specified segment number must be loaded with an arbitrary
waveform before the synthesizer can execute this command
successfully. This command lets you specify segment number,
sampling clock rate, amplitude and offset. The default settings for
these functions are: 1, 1 MHz, 5 Vp-p and 0 V.
