:WGEN Commands 30

Agilent InfiniiVision 3000 X-Series Oscilloscopes Programmer's Guide 747

For all waveform types, the output amplitude, into 50 , can be adjusted

from 10 mVpp to 2.5 Vpp (or from 20 mVpp to 5 Vpp into and

open- circuit load).

Query Syntax

:WGEN:FUNCtion?

The :WGEN:FUNCtion? query returns the currently selected signal type.

Return Format

<signal> ::= {SIN | SQU | RAMP | PULS | NOIS | DC}

See Also • "Introduction to :WGEN Commands" on page 744

PULSe Use these commands to set the pulse signal parameters:

• ":WGEN:FREQuency" on page 745

• ":WGEN:PERiod" on page 753

• ":WGEN:VOLTage" on page 755

• ":WGEN:VOLTage:OFFSet" on page 758

• ":WGEN:VOLTage:HIGH" on page 756

• ":WGEN:VOLTage:LOW" on page 757

• ":WGEN:FUNCtion:PULSe:WIDTh" on page 748

The frequency can be adjusted from 100 mHz to 10 MHz.

The pulse width can be adjusted from 20 ns to the period minus 20 ns.

DC Use this command to set the DC level:

• ":WGEN:VOLTage:OFFSet" on page 758

NOISe Use these commands to set the noise signal parameters:

• ":WGEN:VOLTage" on page 755

• ":WGEN:VOLTage:OFFSet" on page 758

• ":WGEN:VOLTage:HIGH" on page 756

• ":WGEN:VOLTage:LOW" on page 757
