5. Set offset voltage: Tap the Offset parameter input field to input 500 with the pop-up
numeric keypad, and then select "mVdc" as the unit. Tap "Ok".
6. Set start phase: Tap the Phase parameter input field to input 90 with the pop-up numeric
keypad, and then select "°" as the unit. Tap "Ok".
7. Enable channel output: Press Output1 or tap the channel output configuration status
bar to enable the channel output. Then,the backlight of Output1 key is
illuminated and the channel status is highlighted ( ), and the Sine signal is output
from the [CH1] connector based on the current configurations.
8. Observe the output waveforms: Connect the [CH1] connector of the DG800 series to
the oscilloscope by using the BNC cable, and then you can view the output waveforms from
the oscilloscope.
Remote Control
DG800 series function/arbitrary waveform generator can be connected to the PC via the USBor
GPIB (working with RIGOL USB-GPIB interface converter) to realize remote control. The remote
control can be realized by using SCPI (Standard Commands for Programmable Instruments)
commands. DG800 series signal generator supports two ways of remote control: user-defined
programming and PC software (e.g. RIGOL Ultra Sigma).
When the instrument is in remote control, the front panel keys (except the Power key and
Help/Local key) and the touch screen are locked. At this time, you can press Help/Local to
exit the remote mode.
