4. Arbitrary Waveform Generator
The XScope has an embedded arbitrary waveform generator. The waveform generator output is independent from the
data acquisition and is always running in the background. You can adjust all the parameters of the waveform: frequency,
amplitude, offset and duty cycle. You can sweep the frequency, amplitude and duty cycle. Figure 53 shows the AWG
Menus.

When adjusting the parameters, the K1 button serves as a shortcut key, which sets predefined values.
When enabling the Sweep, the waveform will be updated only on a screen refresh. For a smooth sweep,
set the scope with a high speed sampling, or stop the oscilloscope.
