FG Mode
AWG710&AWG710B Arbitrary Waveform Generator User Manual 3-239
Frequency and Resolution
While operating in FG mode, the output frequency determines the number of data
points used to generate the waveform data and the marker data for one period. The
resolution of Pulse Duty cycle ratio and the width of Marker position
corresponding to the number of data points are shown in the following table.
Save/Restore Setup
You can save and restore the instrument output setup information on FG mode to
a setup file. Setup file includes waveform type, marker signals and all the output
setup parameters. Save/Restore operation is executed on the Save/Restore menu of
the SETUP screen in AWG mode. A saved setup file contains the setting
information on both AWG mode and each Extended Operation mode. Refer to The
Save/Restore Menu on page 3-48.
Operation Flow
When the AWG710&AWG710B is in AWG mode, change to FG mode. Reference
page 3-234.
1. Push Sine, Triangle, Square, Ramp, Pulse or DC (bottom) button to select
the waveform.
2. Set the output parameters according to the waveform selected.
Duty is added to the side menu for Pulse mode.
Offset is only used for setup of DC level. Offset is selected on the DC side
menu.
