Output Frequency
As shown below, the output frequency range depends on the function
currently selected. The default frequency is 1 kHz for all functions.
For arbitrary waveforms that you create and download to memory,
the maximum frequency depends on the number of points specified in
the waveform. As shown below, the maximum output frequency
decreases as you specify more points in the waveform. The five built-in
arbitrary waveforms can be output at a maximum of 5 MHz.
