(3) Press F1 to set Sweep Time, the Time Span of the Sweep for which the
Frequency changes from the Start Frequency to Stop Frequency.
(4) Press F2 to select the Sweep Type. Linear means setting the Sweep with linear
spacing; Log means setting the Sweep with logarithmic spacing.
(5) Use Start Freq and Stop Freq or Center Freq and Freq Span to set the range of the
frequency. Press F3 to select Sta_Freq or Cen_Freq, and set the desired value.
(6) Press F4 to select StopFreq or FreqSpan, and set the desired value.
(7) Press F5 to select NextPage, press it again to enter the next page.
(8) Press F1 to select the source. Internal means using the internal source. External
means using the Ext Trig/Burst/Fsk In connector in the rear panel to input the
external signal. Manual means choosing manual trigger; in Sweep interface, press the
knob on the front panel to trigger a Sweep.
To Generate Burst
Burst function is only used for CH1. Press the Mod button, then press F3 to select
Burst to generate versatile waveforms in burst. Burst can last for certain times of
waveform cycle (N-Cycle Burst), or to be controlled by external gated signals (Gated Burst).
Bust can apply to Sine, Square, Ramp, Pulse and Arbitrary waveforms (Noise can not be
used).
Term Explanation
Burst:
Output Waveforms with set cycle times. Generally it is called BURST function within
every Signal Generator.
N-Cycle Burst:
N-
Cycle has specific number of waveform cycles, and every burst is activated by a
trigger event.
Gated Burst:
Gated burst use external source to control burst as when to be activated.
