Function/Arbitrary Waveform Generators
Functional Description (contd.)
3. To Set Ramp
Signals
Press this button to call the ramp operation. The ramp waveform
parameters are set by using the ramp operation menu.
The parameters for ramp waveforms are: frequency/ period, amplitude/ high
level, offset/ low level, phase and symmetry. As is shown below, in the soft
key menu, select Symmetry. Cursor is located in the symmetry parameter
area in the parameter display window, and users can set the symmetry value
here.

Explanation
Freq/
Period
Set the signal frequency or period;
The current parameter will switch at a second
press.
Ampl/
HLevel
Set the signal amplitude or high level;
The current parameter will switch at a second
press.
Offset/
LLevel
Set the signal offset or low level;
The current parameter will switch at a second
press.
Phase/
EqPhase
Set the phase of the signal;
The current parameter will switch at a second
press.
Symmetry
Set the symmetry for ramp waveform.
Symmetry: Percentage that the rising period takes up the whole period.
Input Range: 0 ~ 100%.
