3.6 Configure Burst

Note: Burst function is available for all waveforms, with the limitation on noise waveform

in which only gated burst function is supported.

Sweep function cannot operate when in burst mode.

Gated burst operation is for use with an internal or external source only.

Follow the steps below to setup a burst output from the generator.

1. Configure your waveform with the desired frequency and amplitude, then press the

Burst button.

2. There are many adjustable parameters to configure the sweep function: Period,

StartPhase, Ncycle, Gated, Source, Trig Out (internal and manual source), Edge

(external source), Cycles/Infinite, Delay, and Trig (manual source).

3. To set the burst period (rate), select Period from the menu and use the rotary knob

or the numeric keypad to enter in seconds.

Burst Period/Rate is the frequency of the burst.

4. To set the start phase, select StartPhase from the menu and use the rotary knob or

the numeric keypad to enter in degrees.

Start Phase is the phase of the waveform where the burst will begin.

5. There are two configurations that can be set for the burst function. One is to burst

with control over the number of cycles. The other is gated burst. Toggle the menu

function key to select Ncycle or Gated from the menu.

Ncycle – Use specified number of cycles of the waveform from the Cycles

menu option to burst.
Gated – Use internal or external source to control the burst output. To use

with internal source, select Internal for source and Period to adjust the

burst period prior to selecting this option.
