– Arbitrary waveform limitations: For arbitrary waveforms, amplitude is limited if the waveform data points do not
span the full range of the output DAC (Digital-to-Analog Converter). For example, the built-in "Sinc" waveform does
not use the full range of values, so its maximum amplitude is limited to 6.087 Vpp (into 50 Ω).
– Setting the high and low levels also sets the waveform amplitude and offset. For example, if you set the high level
to +2 V and the low level to -3 V, the resulting amplitude is 5 Vpp, with a -500 mV offset.
– To output a DC voltage level, select the DC voltage function (FUNCtion DC) and then set the offset voltage
(VOLTage:OFFSet). Valid values are between ±5 VDC into 50 Ω or ±10 VDC into an open circuit. While the
instrument is in DC mode, setting amplitude has no effect.
Front Panel Operations
Press [Waveform] > MORE 1/2 > DC > Offset . Use the numeric keypad or the knob and arrows to set a desired
value. If you use the keypad, select a unit prefix to finish.
SCPI Command
[SOURce[1|2]:]VOLTage:OFFSet {<offset>|MINimum|MAXimum|DEFault}
[SOURce[1|2]:]VOLTage:HIGH {<voltage>|MINimum|MAXimum|DEFault}
[SOURce[1|2]:]VOLTage:LOW {<voltage>|MINimum|MAXimum|DEFault}
The APPLy command configures a waveform with one command.
Output Units
Applies to output amplitude only.
– Output units: Vpp (default), Vrms, or dBm.
– Setting is volatile.
