Pulse Configuration Commands

The pulse chapter is used to control and output pulse waveforms.
Unlike the APPLy command, low level control is possible including
setting the rise time, fall time, period and pulse width.

SOURce[1|2]:PULSe:PERiod

Source Specific
Command

Description

Sets or queries the pulse period. The default period
is 1 ms.

Note

The pulse period must be greater than the pulse
width and edge time(1.6x) combined.
Pulse Width + (1.6 * Edge Time) < Period
If the edge time or pulse width are too great, they
will automatically be reduced to fit the period by
the function generator.
The PULSe:PERiod function will change the period
for all functions, not just for the pulse waveforms.
If a different function is chosen and the current
period is out of range, the period will be
automatically adjusted to suit the new function.
