1. Use the SOURce[1]:FUNCtion USER

command to output the arbitrary waveform
currently selected in memory.

2. Use the APPLy command to select frequency,

amplitude and DC offset. Alternatively, the
FUNC, FREQ, AMPl, and DCOffs commands
can be used.

3. Waveform data (1 to 1,048,576 points per

waveform) can be downloaded into volatile
memory using the DATA:DAC command.
Binary integer or decimal integer values in the
range of ± 32767 can be used.

4. The waveform rate is the product of the

number of points in the waveform and the
waveform frequency.

Rate = Hz × # points
Range:

Rate:

10μHz ~ 200MHz

Frequency: 10μHz ~ 100MHz
# points:

1~1,048,576
