1. Inleiding
This user manual provides comprehensive instructions for the safe and effective operation of the Rigol DG1062Z Function/Arbitrary Waveform Generator. The DG1062Z is a high-performance, multi-functional signal source capable of generating various waveforms, including sine, square, ramp, pulse, noise, and arbitrary waveforms, with a maximum frequency of 60MHz across two independent channels. It features a 14-bit vertical resolution and 8Mpts arbitrary wave length, making it suitable for a wide range of applications in electronics testing, education, and research.
Please read this manual thoroughly before operating the device to ensure proper usage and to prevent damage to the instrument or injury to personnel. Keep this manual for future reference.

2.2 Stroomaansluiting
- Ensure the power switch on the front panel is in the UIT positie.
- Connect the supplied AC power cord to the power input connector on the rear panel of the instrument.
- Plug the other end of the power cord into a grounded AC power outlet. The DG1062Z supports AC 100-240V, 45-440Hz.
2.3 Verbinding maken met andere apparaten
The DG1062Z offers various connectivity options for integration into your test setup.
- Output Channels (CH1, CH2): Use BNC cables to connect the CH1 and CH2 output connectors on the front panel to your device under test or an oscilloscope.
- USB Host/Device: The front panel USB host port allows for connecting USB storage devices. The rear panel USB device port can be used for PC communication.
- LAN (LXI): The Ethernet port on the rear panel enables network connectivity for remote control and data transfer.
- External Reference Input/Output (10MHz In/Out): For synchronization with external reference clocks.
- External Modulation/Trigger Inputs: For external control of modulation and burst functions.

3.2 Generating Standard Waveforms
Om een standaardgolfvorm te genereren:
- Press one of the waveform buttons (e.g., Sinus, Vierkant, Ramp, Pols, Lawaai, Arb) to select the desired waveform type.
- Use the numeric keypad and navigation keys to set parameters such as Frequentie, Amphoogte (Vpp), Verschuiven, En Fase.
- Druk op de Uitvoer button for the desired channel (CH1 or CH2) to enable the waveform output. The button will illuminate when the output is active.
3.3 Modulatiefuncties
The DG1062Z supports various modulation types. Press the Mod knop om de modulatie-instellingen te openen.
- BEN (Ampamplitudemodulatie): Adjust carrier frequency, modulation depth, and modulating waveform.
- FM (Frequentiemodulatie): Set carrier frequency, frequency deviation, and modulating waveform.
- PM (Phase Modulation): Configure carrier frequency, phase deviation, and modulating waveform.
- VRAGEN (Amplitude Shift Keying): Define carrier frequency and keying rate.
- FSK (Frequency Shift Keying): Specify carrier frequency and keying rate.
3.4 Sweep and Burst Modes
The instrument can generate swept and burst waveforms.
- Vegen: Pers Vegen to configure start/stop frequency, sweep time, and sweep type (linear/log).
- Uitbarsting: Pers Uitbarsting to set the number of cycles, burst period, and trigger source (internal/external/manual).
3.5 Using the Counter Function
The DG1062Z includes a built-in frequency counter. Press the Balie button to activate and configure the counter. It can measure frequency, period, and duty cycle of external signals.
3.6 Saving and Recalling Settings
To save current instrument settings, press the Winkel button. To recall previously saved settings, press the Herinneren button (often accessed via Utility menu or dedicated button).
4. Onderhoud
4.1 Het instrument reinigen
To maintain the appearance and prolong the life of the instrument, clean the exterior surfaces regularly. Use a soft cloth dampened with a mild detergent or water. Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents that may damage the plastic parts.
4.2 Kalibratie
The DG1062Z is factory calibrated. For optimal performance, periodic calibration by qualified service personnel is recommended. Refer to Rigol's official support channels for calibration services.
