FG Mode
AWG610 Arbitrary Waveform Generator User Manual 3-227
While operating in FG mode, the output frequency determines the number of
data points used to generate the waveform data and the marker data for one
period. The resolution of Pulse Duty cycle ratio and the width of Marker position
corresponding to the number of data points are shown in the following table.

You can save and restore the instrument output setup information on FG mode to
a setup file. Setup file includes waveform type, marker signals and all the output
setup parameters. Save/Restore operation is executed on the save/Restore menu
of the setup screen in AWG mode. A saved setup file contains the setting
information on both AWG mode and FG mode. Refer to The Saved/Restore
Menu on page 3–41.
When the AWG610 is in AWG mode, change io FG mode. Reference
page3–222.
1. Push Sine, Triangle, Square, Ramp, Pulse or DC (bottom) button to select
the waveform.
2. Set the output parameters according to the waveform selected.
Duty is added to the side menu for Pulse mode.
Offset is only used for setup of DC level. Offset is selected on the DC
side menu.
