To Set Duty Cycle (Square)

Duty cycle is defined as the percentage that the high level takes up in the whole

period (as shown in the figure below). This parameter is only available when square

is selected.

Duty Cycle=t/T*100%

The setting range of duty cycle is limited by the “Freq/Period” setting. Please refer

to “Signal Characteristics” in “Specifications”. The default value is 50%.

Press Duty Cycle to highlight the softkey. At this point, use the numeric keyboard to

input the desired duty cycle value and then select the unit “%” from the pop-up

menu.

Users can also use the direction keys and knob to set the parameter value: use the

direction keys to move the cursor to select the digit to be edited and then rotate the

knob to change the number.
