In this example, the Arb type is Voltage.
– Set the Arb Type to Voltage.
– Set V0, V1, t0, t1, t2, # of Steps, Voltage after Arb, and repeat count accordingly. Use the navigation keys to
select the field; use the numeric entry keys to enter the value. The value is set when you press [Enter].
– Set Trigger Source to Key. Press Properties > Trig Src Key.
– Press the color-coded [On] key to enable the output.
– Press Run to start the Arb operation. To abort the operation, press Stop. Alternatively, press [List Run/Stop].
– Press [Scope/Datalog] to enter Scope view and display the Arb.
From the remote interface:
Select the Arb Type and Shape:
ARB:FUNC:TYPE VOLT
ARB:FUNC:SHAP STA
Enter the values for the level before and after a voltage staircase:
ARB:VOLT:STA:STAR 0
ARB:VOLT:STA:END 5
Enter the time before the staircase, the stair-time of the ramp, and the time after the staircase:
ARB:VOLT:STA:STAR:TIM 0.2
ARB:VOLT:STA:TIM 0.2
ARB:VOLT:STA:END:TIM 0.2
Enter the total number of staircase steps:
ARB:VOLT:STA:NST 3
The parameter setting returns to the DC value that was in effect prior to the Arb.
ARB:TERM:LAST OFF
The parameter setting remains at the last Arb value after the Arb completes.
ARB:TERM:LAST ON
Specify the repeat count of the Arb, or specify continuous repetition (INF):
ARB:COUN 10
ARB:COUN INF
To set the voltage mode to Arb:
VOLT:MODE ARB
Set the trigger source to Key/Immediate:
TRIG:SOUR IMM
To enable the output:
OUTP ON
To initiate the transient trigger system:
INIT:TRAN
