DG4062 | 60 MHz Arbitrary Waveform Generator
Selection Guide
As Rigol's newest waveform generator, the DG4000 series is part of a new family of fast, easy-to-use, ultra-modern testing instruments. DG4000 is a multifunctional generator that helps accomplish a range of testing by combining many functions into one instrument. Functions include Function Generation, Arbitrary Waveform Generation, Pulse Generation, Harmonic Generation, and Analog/Digital Modulation and Counting. The DG4000 utilizes Direct Digital Synthesizer (DDS) technology, which delivers stable, precise, low distortion signals. The sleek new design features a high resolution 7” display screen, while user-friendly interface design and panel layout improves efficiency.

DG4000 packing list The attached document is the packing list for all included items for the DG4000 series. 
Creating DG4000 Wave Forms Programming DG4 from front panel More information about Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) This note describes PWM schemes in more detail. We also cover configuring a DG4000 for PWM output and a short description of the current pulse and PWM capabilities of our product line. DG4000 firmware upgrade Here is the procedure to upgrade your DG4000 Arbitrary Waveform Generator firmware. DG4000 memory clear procedure In many cases, customers may want to clear the memory on a DG4000. Here is the procedure that will clear all of the memory locations within the instrument. DG4000 calibration certificate Here is an example of the DG4000 calibration certificate. DG4000 nonvolatile and volatile memory diagram Here is a short description of the memory architecture used within the DG4000 family. What products are LXI compliant? The attached document lists the LXI Compliant instruments. Are your products UL or CSA listed? At this time, many of our products are C TUV USA listed. Per the TUV website, http://www.tuvasi.com/en/tests-and-analysis/information-about-nrtl-tests.htmlThe C TUV US mark is recognized as the equivalent and direct replacement to the UL and CSA m When I plug in my instrument via USB, I get a Windows Page Fault error ( Blue Screen of Death / BSoD ). There is a known issue with the IVI VISA Shared components version.See attached document for more details. Software Compatibility The attached PDF file describes Windows 7 Compatibility Issues. Help File Error: Navigation to web page cancelled. Some instrument manuals are compiled HTML files with extensions ending in .CHM. On occasion, they have shown Navigation to web page cancelled. Here are some steps to help solve that error. Where do I find instrument drivers for LabVIEW? http://www.ni.com/downloads/idnet/ Why does the amplitude of my function generator not match the displayed amplitude? Instruments like the Rigol DG Arbitrary Waveform Generators are designed with a 50 ohm output impedance in parallel with the output of the instrument.When a circuit or device is connected to the output, it is electrically connected in parallel to this Rigol Scopes VISA Driver Installation / Rigol’s UltraScope software not detect Rigol scope attached to PC via USB OR User receives Run Time Error '48': File not found VISA32.DLL error message when UltraScope is launched. The user either has not installed the latest available National Instruments VISA Runtime engine or the version of National Instrument’s VISA Runtime Engine included on the CD that the user installed is outdated.In both cases, the recommended solution VISA Runtime for Apple OS X To use a VISA compatible Rigol instrument under Apple OS X, the user must install National Instruments VISA run-time engine for OS XAs of this writing the latest OS X VISA run-time engine from National Instruments is NI-VISA 5.0NI-VISA 5.0 can be Bits vs. dBs Here are instructions on converting bits of resolution to dBs. My Instrument IVI Driver does not appear in the LabVIEW tools palette. You may need to manually find and convert the IVI driver. See attachment for more details. The instrument not recognized over the USB bus In some cases, an instrument may not be recognized over the USB bus. Here are some troubleshooting hints to help. -

Mixing RF Signals This note uses the TX1000 RF Demo Kit, A DG4000 function Generator, and the DSA815 Spectrum Analyzer to describe and demonstrate the fundamental operation of a multiplexer. PA1011 Power Amplifier Application Note FM signal transmission and demodulation demo This application uses a DG4162 arbitrary waveform generator and audio source to create a custom FM transmission and then a DSA-1030A spectrum analyzer to receive and demodulate the signal.
