5. Features and Functions
This chapter makes it easy to look up details about a particular feature of the waveform
generator. It also covers the front-panel operations. You should read Chpter2 Front-panel
Menu Operation first and master the basic operation so as to get a better understanding for
this chapter.
5.1 Reference
5.1.1 Working mode
There are six working modes for the waveform generator,
While, CHA covers four modes: continuous output, modulate output, sweep output and
burst output. Notice that the modulate output covers seven types: FM, AM, PM, PWM, Sum,
FSK and BPSK. And sweep output covers two types: Frequency sweep and List sweep.
CHB covers two modes: continuous output and dual channel operation.
Dual channel operation includes frequency coupling, amplitude coupling and waveform
combine. Besides, the frequency counter is just an additional part which has no any
relationship with CHA/CHB. In a word, one dual-purpose instrument- waveform generator
and frequency counter.
