Gated Burst
In Gated Mode, the generator controls the output waveform according to the external
signal from the ExtTrig connector at the rear panel (as shown in the picture below).
Waveform functions which support Gated Burst are Sine, Square, Ramp, Pulse, Noise
and arbitrary waveforms (except DC).
When the gated signal is “True”, the generator outputs a continuous waveform; when
the gated signal is “False”, the generator completes the current period, and then stops
and holds on the voltage level corresponding to the initial burst phase of the selected
waveform. For Noise waveform, the output will stop immediately once the gated
signal becomes false.
When Burst is enabled, press Type to select “Gated” and then press Polarity to set
the gated polarity as “Positive” (or “Negative”). In Graphic Mode, you could find that
the generator outputs burst waveform only when the gated signal is “positive” (or
“negative”).
Gated Burst could only be triggered by “External” source. You can also set “Start
Phase”.
