Pattern Formats

In pattern mode the pulse output formats can be selected from:

RZ

A single pulse is generated in each pulse period 

with data value 1, no pulse is generated for data 

value 0.

NRZ

A leading edge is generated for a 0

1 data transi-

tion, a trailing edge is generated for a 1

0 data 

transition.
