Chapter 4 Remote Interface ReferenceBurst Modulation CommandsBurst Modulation CommandsUse the APPLy command or the equivalent FUNC:SHAP, FREQ, VOLT,and VOLT:OFFS commands to configure the carrier waveform. Set thecarrier frequency between 10 mHz and 5 MHz (100 kHz for triangle andramp). The default is 1 kHz.BM:NCYCles {|INFinity|MINimum|MAXimum}Set the number of cycles to be output per burst (triggered burst mode only).Select from 1 cycle to 50,000 cycles, in 1 cycle increments. The default is1 cycle. MIN = 1 cycle. MAX = 50,000 cycles. [ Stored in volatile memory ]œ For sine, square, and arbitrary waveforms (does not apply to rampand triangle waveforms), the relationship between the carrierfrequency and the minimum burst count is shown below.CarrierFrequency10 mHz to 1 MHz>1 MHz to 2 MHz>2 MHz to 3 MHz>3 MHz to 4 MHz>4 MHz to 5 MHzMinimumBurst Count12345For sine, square, andarbitrary waveforms only.If you attempt to set the carrier frequency to a value that is not valid,the function generator will automatically adjust the frequency to themaximum value allowed with the present burst count. From theremote interface, a -221, “Settings conflict” error is generated and thecarrier frequency is adjusted.162
