How to use it

Signal On: Tick this box to enable the signal generator.

Frequency: Type in this box or use the spin buttons to select the frequency. If the scope device has a frequency sweep generator, then this box will set the start frequency of the sweep.

Sweep Mode Active. Tick this box to enable sweep mode. Otherwise, the generator will operate at a fixed frequency set by the Start Frequency box.

Repeat Signal. Tick this box to generate a repetitive sweep. Otherwise, the generator will reach Stop Frequency and then remain there.

Dual Slope. In normal mode, the generator will increase the frequency linearly from Start Frequency to Stop Frequency, and then immediately begin again at Start Frequency. In Dual Slope mode, it will reach Stop Frequency and then decrease the frequency linearly to Start Frequency before beginning again.

Stop Frequency. In Sweep Mode, the generator will stop increasing the frequency when it reaches Stop Frequency.

Frequency Increment. In Sweep Mode, the generator will increase or decrease the frequency by this amount every Increment Time Interval.

Increment Time Interval. In Sweep Mode, the generator will increase or decrease the frequency by Frequency Increment once every time interval of this duration.
