To output a dc voltage
To output a dc voltage
In addition to generating waveforms, you can also output a dc voltage in the range – 5 Vdc (into a 50W termination). The following steps show you how to output +155 mVdc.
1 Press the Offset key and hold it down for more than 2 seconds.
To enter the dc voltage mode, press the Offset key or any key in the top row of function keys and hold it down for more than 2 seconds. The displayed voltage is either the
DCV
+0.000 VDC
2Enter the magnitude of the desired voltage.

Notice that the Num annunciator turns on and “ENTER NUM” flashes on the display, indicating that the number mode is enabled.
155
To cancel the number mode, press Shift ![](/images/new-backgrounds/1283405/28340563xi3.webp)
Cancel .
3Set the units to the desired value.
At this point, the function generator outputs the displayed dc voltage. Notice that the Offset annunciator turns on (all other annunciators are off), indicating that a dc voltage is being output. The annunciator will turn on when the offset is any value other than 0 volts.
+155.0 mVDC
