3.13 Using The Model 4076 and 4079


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

* Generating a standard waveform

* Creating an arbitrary waveform

* Loading a waveform into execution memory

* Generating a waveform output

* Modifying waveform output
* Storing and recalling a waveform generator setup

The waveform generator has two types of memory: waveform memory and execution memory. Waveform memory

consists of 4,000,000 points at which you can specie a value from -8191 to 8191. You can scale these points in execution memory

through the output amplitude setting; that is, data point 8191 is equal to the positive peak of the output amplitude.

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 pressing WAVE key, then select the wave type from the menu using the function keys.

* Setting the output.

* Setting the output amplitude and 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 F5) 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.

3.13.4 Setting the Output Amplitude

To set the output amplitude:
