Figure 2-12 Gated Burst
When the gated signal is “True”, the generator outputs a continuous waveform.
When the gated signal is “False”, the generator first completes the output of the
current period and then stops. For Noise waveform, the output will stop immediately
once the gated signal becomes “False”.
Gated Burst could only be triggered by “Ext” trigger source.
Burst Period
Burst period is only available for N cycle burst in internal trigger and is defined as the
time from the start of a burst to the start of the next one.
 Burst Period ≥ 1μs + waveform period × number of bursts. Here, waveform
period is the period of burst function (such as Sine and Square).
 If the burst period currently set is too short, the generator will increase this
period automatically to allow the output of the specified number of cycles.
When Burst is enabled, press Type  “NCycle”  Trigger  Source  “Int” to
select N cycle burst in internal trigger. Press to return to the previous menu and
then press Burst Period to input the desired period using the numeric keyboard or
direction keys and knob. The default is 10ms and the range is from 1μs to 500s.
Gated Polarity
Gated polarity is only available in gated burst mode. The instrument outputs burst
when the gated signal of the [CH1/Sync/Ext Mod/Trig/FSK] connector at the
rear panel is “High Level” or “Low Level”.
When Burst is enabled, press Type  “Gated”  Polarity to select “Pos” or “Neg”.
The default is “Pos”.
