Figure 3 "203: Waveform Polarity

Setting the Duty Duty is added for the Pulse side menu. It allows you to set the duty cycle for pulse waveforms. The duty is set to 0±100% in steps of 1%. Duty is set using the numeric keys or the general purpose knob. When the duty is set to 0% or 100%, the wave will be DC. Figure 3 -204 shows a pulse waveform whose duty value has been set to 30%.

External Output

The external output signals for FG mode are sync signals and marker signals.

Sync Signal The sync signal is generated at the end point for the waveform data. In the frequency slower than 250 kHz, the sync signal is generated for every one cycle waveform. In the frequency faster than 250 kHz, the sync signal is generated for every two cycle waveforms. This is because the sync signal is generated for every 200 data points, and 100 data points for the one cycle waveform is not a multiple of 8 as explained at the Data Length in Section 3.
