AFG configuration menu
Use the AFG configuration menu to set the output signal parameters for the optional arbitrary/function generator. Use the AFG to
simulate signals within a design or add noise to signals to perform margin testing.
To open the AFG configuration menu:
1. If Off, tap the AFG button on the Settings bar. When Output is set to On, the oscilloscope changes the AFG button to an
AFG badge that shows the AFG settings.
2. If On, double-tap the AFG badge to open the AFG menu.
Arbitrary/Function Generator overview
The function generator provides output of predefined waveforms up to 50 MHz. Choose between Sine, Square, Pulse, Ramp,
DC, Noise, Sin(x)/x, Gaussian, Lorentz, Exponential Rise, Exponential Decay, Haversine, Cardiac and Arbitrary signals.
You can also select a predefined waveform or load a saved .wfm- or .csv-format waveform from storage (USB drive, or a network
drive on instruments with Windows OS installed).
Arbitrary/Function Generator menu fields and controls
Not all items listed in the table may be shown for all measurements. The configuration menu only shows fields and controls
relevant to the selected Waveform Type.
The output connector is on the rear panel, labeled AFG Out.
