To Set the Amplitude
The amplitude range is limited by the "Resistance" and "Freq/Period" settings.
Please refer to "Output Characteristics" in "Specifications
". The default value is
5Vpp.
The amplitude displayed on the screen is the default value or the amplitude
previously set. When the instrument configuration (such as frequency) is changed,
if this amplitude is valid, the instrument will still use this amplitude; otherwise, the
instrument would display prompt message and set the amplitude to the amplitude
upper limit of the new configuration automatically. Users can also use "High Level"
or "Low Level" to set the amplitude.
Press Ampl/HiLevel to highlight "Ampl". At this point, use the numeric keyboard
to input the amplitude value and select the desired unit from the pop-up unit menu
or use the direction keys and knob to modify the current value.
 For the input method of amplitude value, refer to the introduction in
"Parameter Setting Method".
 The amplitude units available are Vpp, mVpp, Vrms, mVrms and dBm (not
available in HighZ).
 Press this softkey again to switch to high level setting. At this point, "HiLevel"
is highlighted.
 The high level units available are V and mV.
