To set up a train of pulses on the output which will run continuously, first you will need to expand Channel 1 to access the relevant menu options.
Press the 'AWG' soft button on the bottom of the screen to enter the AWG menu.
In this example we want a 200mV pulse with a 200uS width and no delay. Once the settings are correct, press the 'OFF' button in the top right to enable the AWG pulse. (This will not output pulses until triggered)
Next, press the back arrow in the bottom right to return to the Channel 1 menu. Then press the 'Trigger' soft button on the bottom of the screen to enter the trigger menu.
Next, press the dropdown arrow next to the Trigger selection at the top. Then select 'Timer'.
In this example we will use a 200us pulse with a 500us off time. First set the count (Inf. If you want it to loop forever), then set the period to 700us. Note that you cannot set a timer period shorter than the pulse width.
Once the trigger settings are correct, enable the Chanel 1 output via the 'On/Off' button on the front panel. Then press the 'Trigger' button on the front panel. The pulses should now output continuously.
