Overview
Figure 3–1 shows a typical process flow from creating and editing to outputting.
Create and edit
waveforms and
sequences using
editors in the
EDIT menu.
Set output, run mode and
trigger event parameters
from the SETUP menu.
You can also use the
frontĆpanel shortcut controls
to quickly change these
parameters.
Output data
You must store waveforms,
patterns, or sequences to a
file before you can output a
waveform. You can also save
the instrument setup
information to a file.
You can also import waveform
and pattern data from an
oscilloscope, data generator,
or AWG2000ĆSeries
instrument.
Create/edit waveforms Define parameters Store/load waveforms
Output can be started from
the front panel (RUN,
FORCE TRIGGER and
FORCE EVENT buttons) or
from remote triggering.
