To output a dc voltage
In addition to generating waveforms, you can also output a dc voltage in
the range
 5 Vdc (into a 50W termination). The following steps show you
how to output +155 mVdc.
1 Press the key and hold it down for more than 2 seconds.
To enter the dc voltage mode, press the
Offset key or any key in the top row
of function keys and
hold it down for more than 2 seconds. The displayed
voltage is either the power-on value or the previous offset voltage selected.

To cancel the number mode, press
Shift Cancel .
Shift 3 Set the units to the desired value.

At this point, the function generator outputs the displayed dc voltage.
Notice that the
Offset annunciator turns on (all other annunciators are
off), indicating that a dc voltage is being output. The annunciator will
turn on when the offset is any value other than 0 volts.
