RIGOL Handle Adjustment Adjust the handle of DG1000 to make the instrument locate in a stable and best observation position. Adjustment Method: Grip the handle by the sides and pull it outward. Then, take it rotate to the desired position.
RIGOL Device Connection Power Connection Connect the power socket and AC with power cord attached to the instrument. Turn on the power switch at the rear panel to power on DG1000, therewithal, the power button on the front panel will be lighted and flashing on and off alternatively. Press it to start the instrument immediately. If start abnormally, please check according to the following steps: 1． Check if the power cord is normally connected and the power switch on the rear panel has been turned on.
RIGOL USB Connection USB Host: This port is used to transfer data when external USB device connects to the generator regarded as a “Host” device. For example, connect a USB flash device for data storage. USB Device: This port is used to transfer data when external USB device connects to the generator regarded as a “Slave” device. For example, connect with PC for remote control.
RIGOL User Interface DG1000 offers three display modes, which can be switched by button on the front panel.
RIGOL Quick Start Waveform Settings DG1000 can generate Basic, Arbitrary, Modulated, Sweep and Burst Waveforms. 1． Basic/Arbitrary Waveform Settings The instrument is available to output 5 kinds of basic waveforms: Sine, Square, Ramp, Pulse and Noise. Besides, it has 48 kinds of built-in arbitrary waveforms and provides 10 nonvolatile storage positions to store arbitrary waveforms defined by users.
RIGOL Setting methods of other waveforms are the same as the example above. All the parameters permitted to be set are listed in the following table.
RIGOL Press to switch the interface to graph mode: Figure 9 AM setting interface under graph display Setting method of other waveforms are the same as the example above. All the parameters permitted to be set are listed in the following table. Table 2 Parameters of modulated waveforms Types AM FM FSK PM Parameters Type (AM), SrcInt (Depth, AMFreq, Shape )/ SrcExt Type (FM), SrcInt (Deviat., FMFreq, Shape )/ SrcExt (Deviat.
RIGOL Press to enter sweep waveform setting interface as follows. Thereinto, parameters as Linear/log, Start/Center, Stop/Span, Time and Trigger are allowed to be set. Figure 10 Sweep waveform setting interface 4． Burst Waveform Settings Various burst waveforms can be generated by CH1 of DG1000 in burst mode. Press to enter the setting interface. Parameters as Cycles/Infinite, Phase, Period, Delay and Trigger are allowed to be set in N-Cycle mode; while Polarity and Phase are available in Gated mode.
RIGOL Parameter Input To input parameters, you need to use the direction keys and knob, in connection with the numeric keyboard on the front panel. Figure 12 Direction keys and knob Figure 13 Keyboard Direction Keys Switch the digital of a numerical value or the storage position of arbitrary waveform/setting files. Knob Change the numerical value. Rotate clockwise to increase and counterclockwise to decrease.
RIGOL Output Setting The two yellow buttons located at the right of front panel shown as follows are for controlling the channels output and counter input: CH2 Output/Counter Input Connector CH1 Output Connector Figure 14 Channel /Counter Connector Channels output Connect the connector shown above with an external device by BNC cable. Press the corresponding “Output” button to start channel outputting. Meanwhile, the backlight of “Output” button turns on and a “ON” sign appears in user interface.
RIGOL Store and Recall In order to store, recall or delete arbitrary waveform/setting files in DG1000 or USB storage device, please use the Store/Recall function.
