To generate a triggered
burst waveform
Burst function is only available on CH1. Burst function generates versatile
waveforms in burst. A burst can last for certain times of waveform cycle
(Triggered Burst), or to be controlled by external gating signals (Gated Burst).
Burst can be applied to sine, square, ramp, pulse, and arb waveforms (You
can’t select noise).
1.
Select a waveform and
then push the front-panel
Mod
button.
2.
Press
Burst
.
NOTE:
You cannot select noise
waveform as a carrier waveform.
3.
Press
N Cycle/Gated
to
select N Cycle.
4.
Press
Trigger Interval
to set the trigger
interval.
5.
Press
Start Phase
to
set start phase.
The
start phase defines the
initial phase where the
waveform output
begins at, and it may
vary from -360 to 360.
For an arbitrary
waveform, 0
°
is the
first waveform point.
6.
Press
Cycles/Infinite
to select
Cycles
. Use
the general purpose
knob or the numeric
keypad to set the
number of waveform
cycles (from 1 to
50,000) in each burst.
If you select
Infinite
,
then a continuous
waveform will be
generated at one
trigger event and will
not stop until another
trigger event happens
(the general purpose
knob on the front
panel is pushed).
