User Manual 3162A/B
Using The Instrument 3-5
values:
APPL:SQU 10E6,,1
Alternatively, if just the first parameters need to be changed, omit the commas.
The other parameters will be set to the power-up default values:
APPL:SQU 4e6,2
Queries can also be made on all parameters associated with a standard
function using the APPL: <function_shape>? query. For example, if the
generator was programmed using the above APPLy:SQU command, query the
square wave parameters using the following query:
APPL:SQU?
The generator returns a string that contains all the parameters associated with
the square function similar to the following string:
"1.6,2.000,0.000,50"
The command:
APPLy:SINusoid
{<frequency>,<amplitude>,<offset>,<phase>,<power>}
programs the generator to output a sine waveform with frequency, amplitude,
offset, start phase and power parameters. Parameters are not optional if the
above APPLy command is used. Include all other parameters in the command.
The default settings for these parameters are: 1MHz, 2Vp-p, 0V, 0 and 1.
The command:
APPLy:TRIangle
{<frequency>,<amplitude>,<offset>,<phase>,<power>}
programs the generator to output a triangle waveform with frequency,
amplitude, offset, start phase, and power parameters. The default settings for
these parameters are: 1 MHz, 2Vp-p, 0V, 0 and 1.
The command:
APPLy:SQUare {<frequency>,<amplitude>,<offset>,<duty_cycle>}
programs the generator to output a square waveform with frequency, amplitude,
offset and duty cycle parameters. The default settings for these parameters
are: 1MHz, 2Vp-p, 0V, and 50%.
The command:
APPLy:PULSe{<frequency>,<amplitude>,<offset>,<delay>,
<high_time>,<rise_time>,<fall_time>}
programs the generator to output a pulse waveform with frequency, amplitude,
