4. GETTING STARTED
In order to familiarise the user with some of the basic functionalities of the instrument, a number
of set-up examples are shown in this guide.
It is recommended that all users should carry out the first four examples:
•
Setting-up a Sine Wave Signal
•
Setting-up a Square Wave Clock Signal
•
Setting-up a Pulse Waveform
•
Setting-up more Output Options
A number of further set-up examples are provided that assume some familiarity with the
instrument:
•
Setting-up an arbitrary wave signal
•
Setting-up an AM modulated Sine Waveform
•
PRBS (TGF4162 & TGF4242)
•
Frequency Modulation of a Sine Waveform
•
Pulse Width Modulated Waveform (PWM)
•
Amplitude shift keying (ASK)
•
Frequency Sweep of a Sine Wave
•
Generating a Triggered Burst
•
Coupling the Frequency of Both Channels
•
Frequency counter
For more detailed information on all functionality - see the full Instruction Manual.
Initial Conditions
Before setting up the instrument for any of the examples, it should be returned to default
conditions. To do this follow these steps:
Press the hard key marked Utility
•
Press the soft-key labelled System
•
Press the soft-key labelled Default (display will show Restore Factory Default?)
•
Press the soft-key labelled Yes
•
This sets the main waveform to Sine (10kHz, 1V pk-pk) and cancels any modulations, sweep, or
burst triggering or gating.
NOTE
The instrument can be set to remember its latest settings on power-off and restore them at power-
on. This is set from the Utility > System menu and the PwrOn soft-key. This setting will be lost
when the instrument is restored to default conditions as described above.
