Command Reference

BTWV - Burst Wave Command

DESCRIPTION

Sets waveform type to burst or retrieves Burst Wave settings.

SYNTAX

:BursTWaVe STATE,ON,,,…

:=

{C1|C2}

:= {a parameter from the table below}

:=

{a value from the table below}

IMPORTANT: Set STATE ON before setting other parameters. Specify carrier wave type before listing
other CARR parameters (e.g., C1:BTWV STATE,ON,CARR,WVTP,....). Once set, you do not need
to repeat CARR; it is shown here to indicate which parameters can follow it.

Parameters

Value

Description

STATE

{ON|OFF}

To set or read other Burst Wave parameters, first set STATE ON.

PRD

Where := {default unit is S; WS2000 1µs to 500S; WS3000 1µs to

1000S}. Parameter is invalid when CARR,WVTP is NOISE or GATE_NCYC

is GATE. Parameter is valid only when TRSR is INT.

STPS

Where := {0 to 360}. Parameter is invalid when CARR,WVTP is

NOISE or PULSE.

GATE_NCYC

{GATE|NCYC}

Configures burst waveform either gated or N-cycled. Parameter is invalid

when CARR,WVTP is NOISE.

TRSR

{EXT, INT, MAN}

Sets trigger source EXTernal, INTernal, or MANual. Parameter is valid only

when GATE_NCYC is NCYC.

DLAY

Where := {default unit is S; min. 0; max. depends on the Burst

period}. Parameter is valid only when GATE_NCYC is NCYC.

PLRT

{NEG|POS}

Sets polarity NEGative or POSitive. Parameter is valid only when

GATE_NCYC is GATE.

TRMD

Where := {RISE, FALL, OFF}. Parameter is invalid when

TRSR is EXT. Parameter is valid only when GATE_NCYC is NCYC.

EDGE

{RISE|FALL}

Use rising or falling edge. Parameter is invalid when CARR,WVTP is NOISE.

Parameter is valid only when GATE_NCYC is NCYC.

TIME

Where := {1 to 50000}. Parameter is valid only when

GATE_NCYC is NCYC.

MTRIG

Triggers the device once. Parameter is valid only when TRSR is MAN.

CARR,WVTP

Where carrier := {SINE, SQUARE, RAMP, PULSE, NOISE,

ARB}. CARR,WVTP cannot be NOISE if GATE_NCYC is NCYC.

(CARR,)FRQ

Where carrier wave := {default unit is Hz; minimum 1xe-6 Hz,

maximum depends on the WaveStation model}.
