Sine Mode (Continuous Mode)
Sine mode refers to a continuously running sine wave of the selected amplitude and
frequency. To configure, select an output amplitude and a start frequency; then click
The selected output will begin and continue running until the button is clicked or the
software application is terminated. End frequency and sweep time do not apply for this mode.
Swept Sine Mode
Swept Sine mode refers to a constant amplitude sine wave that is being swept in frequency
from a selected start frequency to a selected stop frequency over a selected sweep time
duration. The frequency sweep characteristic can be chosen to be linear or logarithmic, and is
distributed among 1280 discrete steps. The transitions between steps are continuous in phase
and in amplitude.
To configure, make selections for the available parameters, and then click the button.
Once a sweep is completed, the waveform returns to its start frequency and is swept again
and again until stopped by the user or until the software application is terminated.
