From the file listing, select the file to output.

4. Push the OK side button.

The instrument inserts the file name into the sequence table.

To delete a specified waveform file, move the cursor to the desired file. Then
push Data Entry (bottom)

!Clear Filename... (side).

Specify the number of repeats used to cause repetitive output of a waveform on a
line. This value may be 1 to 65536. In addition, Infinity may also be specified.
When infinity is specified, control will no longer advance. Thus, it should
usually be used together with Logic Jump or Table Jump. Do the following steps
to enter a repeat count:

Do the following steps to set the repeat count value:

1. Move the cursor to the Repeat Count column.

2. Push Data Entry (bottom)

!Repeat Count... (side).

3. Specify a repeat count value using the general purpose or numeric keys.

Do the following steps if you specify Infinity.

1. Push Data Entry (bottom)

!Infinity (side) to toggle between On and Off.

2. Alternatively, push the SHIFT on the front-panel and then the INF numeric

key in step 1. Specify the repeat count.

NOTE. The Infinity setting is neglected in the subsequence. The general purpose
knob is assigned to shift the numeric values when Repeat Count has been set.
Push TOGGLE or CLEAR MENU on the front panel to exit the setting mode.

The Wait Trigger column lets you set the instrument to wait for a trigger event
before outputting a waveform on the specified sequence table line. Either the
Internal or External trigger source will be used, depending on which is selected
in the SETUP menu. Valid values are On and Off (blank). Wait Trigger function-
ality is only valid when the Run Mode is set to Enhanced. Note that this setting
is neglected in the subsequence.

The instrument processes sequence table entries until it encounters a Wait
Trigger set to ON. If the instrument Run Mode is set to Triggered or Enhanced,
the instrument then stops output until it receives a trigger. When the instrument
receives a trigger, it outputs the waveform on the sequence table line that
contains the Wait Trigger, then continues to process the sequence table lines.
