AFG3000 Series Quick Start User Manual
Shortcut Buttons
Shortcut buttons are provided for experienced users. The shortcut buttons allow you to select a setup parameter and enter 
a numeric value using the front panel controls. By using the shortcut buttons, you can select a waveform parameter without 
using any bezel menu selection.
Quick Tips
If you push the Phase | Delay shortcut button, Delay becomes active. Pushing Phase | Delay again will have no effect, 
because there is no phase parameter in the pulse parameter menu.
The Duty/Width and Leading/Trailing shortcut buttons are functional only when the instrument is in the pulse 
parameter menu.
1. Shortcut buttons are located below the 
Run Mode buttons on the front panel.
In this example, use pulse waveform.
2. If you push the Amplitude/High short-
cut button once, Amplitude becomes 
active.
3. If you push the Amplitude/High short-
cut button again, High Level becomes 
active.
You can also set parameters for 
Frequency/Period, Offset/Low, 
Duty/Width, or Leading/Trailing in the 
same way.
