This command selects the shape of the output voltage waveform when a triggered step or pulse
transient occurs. The parameters are:
SINusoid A sinewave is output
SQUare A squarewave is output
CSINusoid The output is a clipped sine waveform. Both positive and negative peak
amplitudes are clipped at a value determined by
SOURce:FUNCtion:SHAPe:CSINusoid.
<waveform_name> The output shape is described by one of the user-defined waveform
tables.
The maximum peak voltage that the AC source can output is 425 V peak. This includes any
combination of voltage and function shape values. Therefore, the maximum value that can be
programmed depends on the peak-to-rms ratio of the selected waveform. For a sinewave, the
maximum voltage that can be programmed is 300 V rms.

This command sets the clipping level when a clipped sine output waveform is selected. The
clipping characteristics can be specified in two ways:
• The clipping level is expressed as a percentage of the peak amplitude at which clipping
occurs. The range is 0 to 100 percent. These are the default units when the optional THD
suffix is not sent.
• The clipping level is expressed at the percentage of total harmonic distortion in the output
voltage. The range is 0 to 43 percent. The optional THD suffix is sent to program in these
units.
