3.13 Using Model 4075 and 4078

This section explains how to generate various waveforms and modify the output waveforms.

3.13.1 Selecting a Standard Waveform

You can select several standard waveforms as: sine, triangle and square. Creating a standard waveform requires

selecting the waveform type, parameters, modes, etc., and their settings that define the waveform.

Generating a standard waveform requires the following:

* Selecting the waveform by pushing any of the waveform buttons (Sine, Ramp, Square, Pulse, or Arb)

* Setting the output frequency by using the rotary input knob or numeric keypad to enter the desired frequency.

* Setting the output amplitude and offset by selecting the option in the function menu and using the rotary input

knob or numeric keyboard to enter the desired amplitude and/or offset.

3.13.2 Setting the Output Mode


To set the output mode:

1. Press MODE to display the Mode menu on the display window.

2. Press the function key (Fl to F4) that corresponds to the desired mode. Choose from Continuous, Trigger, Burst,

and Gate mode. You can also adjust the Phase in the same menu.


3.13.3 Setting the Output


To set the output channel, press the Output ON key. An internal LED is illuminated to indicate that the Output is
ON.
