The Setup Menu Screen
3-38 AWG710&AWG710B Arbitrary Waveform Generator User Manual
The Vertical Menu
The Vertical menu lets you set waveform (analog and markers) vertical parameters.
You can set signal peak–to–peak range, offset voltage, and lowpass filter
frequency. The Vertical menu commands are Filter, Amplitude, Offset, Marker...
and Output.
Filter
(except option 02)
This button lets you set the lowpass filter. You can select 20 MHz, 50 MHz, 100
MHz, 200 MHz or Through (no limiting).
Do the following steps to set the output waveform band limit:
1. Push SETUP (front)!Vertical (bottom)!Filter (side). The instrument
highlights the Through screen icon.
2. Use the general purpose knob to select 20 MHz, 50 MHz, 100 MHz, 200 MHz
or Through.
Amplitude
This button lets you set the analog waveform signal output voltage range from 20
mV
p–p
to 2.0 V
p–p
(option 02: 500mV
p–p
to 1.0V
p–p
), in 1 mV increments,
terminated into 50 Ω. You can only get the maximum output of 2.0 V
p–p
(option
02: 1.0V
p–p)
if the waveform file is using the full 8–bit DAC range of ±1.000.
To set the marker output levels, refer to the Marker... menu description on page
3-39.
Do the following steps to set the waveform output levels:
1. Push SETUP (front)!Vertical (bottom)!Amplitude (side). The instrument
highlights the Amplitude screen icon.
2. Use the general purpose knob, numeric buttons, keyboard, or LEVEL/SCALE
knob to set the output amplitude value. If you use a knob, use the a or ' button
to select the digit to change.
NOTE. You can change the analog output amplitude and offset values directly in
any screen by using the Vertical LEVEL/SCALE and OFFSET knobs on the
front–panel, respectively.
The product which has option 02 doesn’t have offset and lowpass filter function.
You can display the Setup Vertical menu at any time by pushing the VERTICAL
MENU front–panel button.
