Safety Requirement
General Safety Summary
Please review the f ollowin g safety precautions carefully before putting the instrument
into operation so as to avoid any personal injuries or damages to the instrument and
any product connected to it. To prevent potential hazards, please use the instrument
only specified by this manual.
Use Proper Power Cord.
Only the power cord designed for the instrument and authorized for use within the
local country could be used.
Ground The Instrument.
The instrument is grounded through the Protective Earth lead of the power cord. To
avoid electric shock, it is essential to connect the earth terminal of power cord to the
Protective Earth terminal before any inputs or outputs.
Connect the Probe Correctly.
If a probe is used, do not connect the ground lead to high volt age since it has the
isobaric electric potential as ground.
Observe All Terminal Ratings.
To avoid fire or shock hazard, observe all ratings and markers on the instrument and
check your manual for more information about ratings before connecting.
Use Proper Overvoltage Protection.
Make sure that no o vervolt age (such as that caused by a thunde rstorm) can reach the
product, or else the operator might expose to danger of electrical shock.
Do Not Operate Without Covers.
Do not operate the instrument with covers or panels removed.
Do Not Insert Anything into the Holes of Fan.
Do not insert anything into the holes of the fan to avoid damaging the instrument.

Use Proper Fuse.
Please use the specified fuses.
Avoid Circuit or Wire Exposure.
Do not touch exposed junctions and components when the unit is powered.
Do Not Operate With Suspected Failures.
If you suspect damage occurs to the instrument, have it i nspected by qualified service
personnel before further operations. Any maintenan ce, adjustment or replacement
especially to circuits or accessories must be performed by RIGOL authorized
personnel.
Keep Well Ventilation.
Inadequate ventilation ma y cause increasing of temperat ure or da mages to t he device.
So please keep well ventilated and inspect the intake and fan regularly.
Do Not Operate in Wet Conditions.
In order to avoid short circuiting to the interior of the device or elect ric shock, please
do not operate in a humid environment.
Do Not Operate in an Explosive Atmosphere.
In order to a void damages to the device or personal i njuries, it is imp ortant to operat e
the device away fr om an exp losive a tmosphere.
Keep Product Surfaces Clean and Dry.
To avoid the infl uence of dust and /or moisture in air, please keep the su rface of device
clean and dry.
Electrostatic Prevention.
Operate in an electrostatic discharge protective area environment to avoid damages
induced by static dischar ges. Alwa ys ground both th e internal an d external con ductors
of the cable to release static before connecting.
Proper Use of Battery.
If a battery is supplied, it must not be e xpose d to high temperature or in cont act with
fire. Keep it out of the reach of children. Improper change of battery (note: lithium
battery) may cause explosion. Use RIGOL specified battery only.

RIGOL Chapter 1 Quick Start
General Inspection
1. Inspect the shipping container for damage.
If there are damages in the container or foam, keep them until the whole
machine and the accessories passing the electrical and mechanical tests.
If your instrument has damaged durin g shipping, please contact y our shipper and
carrier for compensation. RIGOL will provide no free repair or replacement.
2. Inspect the instrument.
In case of any mechanical damage or defect, or if the instrument does not
operat e properl y or pass the electrical a nd mechanical tests, contact your local
sales representative of RIGOL.
3. Check the Accessories
If the contents are incomplete or damaged, please contact your local sales
representative of RIGOL.

RIGOL Chapter 1 Quick Start
1. Power Key
The power soft key is used to turn the generator on or off.
2. USB Host
Support FAT fil e format USB flash device, RIGOL TMC digital oscilloscope (DS)
and power amplifie r (PA).
USB flash device: Read the waveform or state files from the USB flash device,
or store the current instrument state and edited waveform data into the USB
flash device.
TMC DS: Seamlessly interconnect with the RIGOL DS that fits the TMC
standard, read and store the waveform data sampled by the DS and display it
nondestructively.
PA (optional): Support the RIGOL power amplif ier, for example, PA1011.
Enable to be configured online and amplify the signal power before output.
3. LCD
480 × 272 TFT color LCD is used to display the current function menu and
parameters setting, system state and prompt messages.
4. Display Switch
For dual-channel model: Switch between Parameter/Graph display mode.
For single-channel model: not available.
5. Sine
Generate a Sine waveform with frequency from 1 μHz to 350 MHz.
When the function is enabled, the backlight of the button turns on.
Enable to change Frequency/Period, Amplitude/High Level, Offset/Low Level
and Start Phase of the S ine wavefor m.
6. Square
Generate a Square waveform wit h frequency from 1 μHz to 120 MHz and variable
duty cycle.
When the function is enabled, the backlight of the button turns on.
Enable to change Frequency/Period, A mpli tu de /Hi gh Le v el, O f f set/Low Level ,
Duty Cycle and Start Phase of the Square waveform.

pulse width and edge time.
When the function is enabled, the backlight of the button turns on.
Enable to change Frequen cy /P e ri od, A mpl itu de /Hi gh L ev el, Of f se t /Lo w Le ve l ,
Pulse Width/Duty Cy cle, Leading Edge Time, Trailing Edge Time and Delay of
the Pulse waveform.
9. Noise
Generate a Gauss Noise with bandwidth up to 250 MHz.
When the function is enabled, the backlight of the button turns on.
Enable to change Amplitude/High L evel and Offset/Low Level of the Noise
waveform.
10. Arb
Generate an arbitrary waveform wi t h freq u e nc y from 1 μHz t o 50 MHz.
Provide two output modes: “Normal” and “Play”.
Generate 10 built-in waveforms: DC, Sinc, E xponent ial Rise, Exponential F all,
ECG, Gauss, Haversine, Lorentz, Pulse and Dual-Tone; generate arbitrary
waveforms from USB flash device; generate arbitrary waveforms edited
online (512 kpts) or through PC software and then downloaded to the
instrument by the users; support wavetable points up to 128 Mpts.

Enable to change Frequency/Period, Amplitude/High Level, Offset/Low Level
and Start Phase of the arbit ra ry waveform.
11. User-defined Key
For some frequently used menus with “deep” location, users can define them as
shortcuts (under the function key Utility). And then, i n any operat ion interface,
press the User-defined Key to quickly open and set your desired menu or
function.
