7.8.3 Parameter Setting
If the setting of [Wave] is sine wave, triangle wave, square wave, noise, or DC, you must set
appropriate parameters to generate the wave. The following shows the available parameters to set.

Type of parameter
The size is the width of [Range] of the page. When the size is changed, the upper limit of range
specification is changed.
Amplitude is peak to peak value.
Period specifies how many cycles (waves) of the waveform should be generated within the range.
The unit of phase is deg.
For a triangle waveform, slope (symmetry) can be set. The unit of slope is %.
For a square wave, duty ratio and transition can be set. The unit of duty ratio is [%]. Transition sets the
time needed for the wave height to reach from 0% to 100% using the ratio (%) against the cycle.
If [Offset] or [Amplitude] that exceeds +/

full scale value is set, the waveform is clipped at +/

full
scale.
