Format type 5
This format type is available only in the current version of the import filter. It allows you to use
ramp and sine waveforms as well as rectangular waveforms. You specify the Pulse type in the
first column, and the waveform in the three following columns. The general rules for setting up
ramp and sine waveforms fully apply (see also Pulse Types). The pulse types are defined by the
following numbers: Rectangular = 0, ramp = 1, sine = 2.
You can only use the rectangular type (0) for the Sync Out channels.
Important: When setting up rectangular or sine waveforms in this format type, you need only
one value column for defining the amplitude, but you have to define both value columns even so.
The first value column is ignored for rectangular and sine pulse types by the MC_Stimulus II
program.

This is an ASCII file viewed in a standard text editor program. You can see the tabs, spaces,
and CR / LF.
For demonstration purposes, a ramp type pulse was programmed on the first channel, a sine wave
on the second channel, a rectangular waveform on the third channel, and mixed pulse types on
the fourth channel.
