App
Setting the Parameters
5.
Press the
Param A
,
Param B
, or
Param C
soft key.
Note
If there is no parameter description in the selected computation definition file, the setup
parameters (Param A to Param C) are not displayed.
6.
Use the
rotary knob
or
numeric keys and < and > keys
to set the parameter.
7.
If you use the numeric keys, press a soft key corresponding to the desired unit
or the
Enter
soft key to confirm the setting.
Confirming the Computation Definition
8.
Press the
View
soft key. The contents of the selected computation definition
are displayed.
Explanation
The measured results can be used to perform various computations. The computation
definition file can be set to any of the built-in computation files or a user-defined
computation file that you create. For a description of writing a user-defined computation
file, see section 8.5, “User-Defined Computation.”
Built-in Computation Files
The following five equations are built in.
• Decibel (dB.txt)
m=A*log(m/B): Computes the decibel of the measured value with respect to B.
• Percent (Percent.txt)
m=(m/A)*100: Computes the percentage of the measured value with respect to A.
• Scaling (Scaling.txt)
m = A*M+B: Scales the measured value.
• Power (Power.txt)
m=V*I: Calculates the power from the source value and measured value. However, if
the source and measurement are of the same function or when measuring resistance,
the power cannot be calculated correctly. To measure power, set the GS610 to
voltage generation and current measurement or current generation and voltage
measurement.
• Sinusoid generation (Sinusoid.txt)
s=A*sin(2*PI*B*t): Generates a sinusoid of amplitude A and frequency B. However, if
the sweep function is enabled, the sweep operation takes precedence. To generate
the sinusoid, turn the sweep function OFF.
