SOURce[1|2]:FUNCtion USER
Source Specific
Command
Description
Use the SOURce[1|2]:FUNCtion USER command
to output the arbitrary waveform currently
selected in memory. The waveform is output with
the current frequency, amplitude and offset
settings.
Syntax SOURce[1|2]:FUNCtion USER
Example SOUR1:FUNC USER
Selects and outputs the current waveform in
memory.
SOURce[1|2]:DATA:DAC
Source Specific
Command
Description
The SOURce[1|2]:DATA:DAC command is used
to download binary or decimal integer values into
memory using the IEEE-488.2 binary block format
or as an ordered list of values.
Note
The integer values (±511) correspond to the
maximum and minimum peak amplitudes of the
waveform. For instance, for a waveform with an
amplitude of 5Vpp (0 offset), the value 511is the
equivalent of 2.5 Volts. If the integer values do not
span the full output range, the peak amplitude will
be limited.
The IEEE-488.2 binary block format is comprised
of three parts:
1. Initialization character
(#)
2. Digit length (in ASCII) of
the number of bytes
2
1 3
3. Number of bytes
IEEE 488.2 uses two bytes to represent waveform
