3.6.4 Arbitrary EDIT Menu
Enters data for creating arbitrary waveforms. You can enter data one point at a time, as a value at an address, draw a
line from one point (a value at an address) to another point, create a predefined waveform, or combine these to
create complex waveforms. The valid data values range is -8191 to 8191. The valid waveform memory addresses
range from 1 to 400,000.
The data value governs the output amplitude of that point of the waveform, scaled to the instrument output
amplitude. Therefore, a value of 8191 corresponds to positive peak amplitude, 0 corresponds to the waveform offset,
and -8191 corresponds to the negative peak amplitude.
Edit Menu
F1: POINT
- This menu allows point by point waveform editing. When selected, the following menu is
displayed:
Point Menu
F1: ADRS - Select the current address in the arbitrary waveform memory.
F2: DATA - Selects the data point value at the current address. You can change the point
value from -8191 to 8191.
F4: PREV - Goes back to previous menu (Edit menu).
F2: LINE
- This menu allows a line drawing between two selected points.
Displays the following menu:
