Basic Digital Operation
Using Waveform Markers
Accessing Marker Utilities
Use the following procedure to display the marker parameters. This procedure uses the Dual ARB
player, but you can access the marker utilities through the
ARB Setup softkey in all ARB formats.
1. Select the ARB waveform player:
press Mode > Dual ARB
2. Press ARB Setup > Marker Utilities .
Sample range begins on first point of signal
Negative range set between signal and
off time
Example of Incorrect Use
Waveform: 1022 points

Marker range: 110–1022

Marker polarity: Negative
This figure shows that a negative polarity marker goes low during
the marker on points; the marker signal goes high during the off
points. The ALC samples the waveform during the off marker
points.
Marker On Marker On
Sampling both on and off time sets the modulator circuitry
incorrectly for higher signal levels. Note the increased amplitude
at the beginning of the pulse.
