WaveStation SCPI Command Reference Manual

920595 RevA

 Tables specifically covering command arguments are listed in the order in which they are functionally

processed for convenience.

Where:

<state>:= {ON,OFF}

<src>:= {INT,EXT}

<mod wave shape>:= {SINE,SQUARE,TRIANGLE,UPRAMP,DNRAMP,NOISE,ARB}

<am frequency>:= {0.002Hz to 20000Hz}

<deep>:= {0 to 120}

<fm frequency>:= {0.002Hz to 20000Hz}

<fm frequency offset>:= {0 to basic waveform frequency / 2}

<pm frequency>:= {0.002Hz to 20000Hz}

<pm phase offset>:= {0 to 360}

<pwm frequency>:= {0Hz to 4kHz}

<pwm devi>:= {Deviation is dependent on the carrier waveform duty cycle}

<ask key frequency>:= {0.002Hz to 20000Hz}

<fsk frequency>:= {0.002Hz to 50000Hz}

<fsk hop frequency>:= {The hop frequency range corresponds to the basic

waveform frequency range}

<wave type>:= {SINE ,SQUARE, RAMP, ARB, PULSE}

<frequency>:= {The default unit is in “HZ”. The minimum value is 1xe-6 HZ,

maximum value depends on your WaveStation model.}

<amplifier>:= {The default unit is in “V”. The C1 minimum value is 0.004V,

Maximum is 6V. The C2 minimum value is 0.004V, and its maximum value is

20V.}

<offset>:= {The default unit is in “V”.}

<duty>:= {If waveform type is set to Square, the range is from 20% to 80%. If the

waveform type is set to Pulse, the range is from 0.1% to 99.9%.}

<symmetry>:= {0% to 100%}

<delay>:= {The maximum value is 2 Ks}

QUERY SYNTAX

<channel>: MoDulateWaVe?

<channel>:= {C1,C2}

RESPONSE FORMAT

<channel>: MoDulateWaVe <parameter>

<parameter>:= {Return all parameters for the current modulated waveform.}

EXAMPLE 1
