Basic Digital Operation

Using the Dual ARB Waveform Player

2.

Create the first waveform segment:

a.

Press

Mode

>

Dual ARB

>

Waveform Segments

>

Load Store

to Store.

b.

Highlight the default segment AUTOGEN_WAVEFORM.

c.

Press

Rename Segment

>

Editing Keys

>

Clear Text

.

d. Enter a file name (for example, TTONE), and press

Enter

>

Store Segment To NVWFM Memory

.

This renames the waveform segment, and stores a copy in non volatile memory.

3.

Generate the second waveform:

a.

Press

Mode

>

Multitone

>

Initialize Table

>

Number Of Tones > 9 > Enter > Done

.

b.

Press

Multitone Off On

to On, then Off.

Remember that a waveform cannot be renamed as a segment while it is in use.

This generates a multitone waveform with nine tones. During waveform generation, the M–TONE
and I/Q annunciators activate. The waveform is stored in volatile memory with the default file
name AUTOGEN_WAVEFORM.

4.

Create the second waveform segment:

Repeat Step 2, giving this segment a descriptive name (for example, MTONE).

Building and Storing a Waveform Sequence

This example shows how to build and edit a waveform sequence using the two waveform segments
created on

page 92

. To use a segment in a sequence, the segment must reside in volatile memory; for

information on loading waveform segments from non volatile to volatile memory, see

page 95

.

1.

Select the waveform segments:

Define a sequence as one repetition of the two–tone waveform segment followed by one repetition
of the nine–tone multitone waveform segment.

a.

Press

Mode

>

Dual ARB

>

Waveform Sequences

>

Build New Waveform Sequence

>

Insert Waveform

.

b.

Highlight the a waveform segment (for example, TTONE) and press

Insert Selected Waveform

.

c.

Highlight a second waveform segment (for example, MTONE) and press

Insert Selected Waveform

.

d. Press

Done Inserting

2.

Optional: Enable markers as desired for the segments in the new sequence: see

page 106

.

3.

Name and store the waveform sequence to the Catalog of Seq Files in the memory catalog:

a.

Press

Name and Store

.

b.

Enter a file name (for example, TTONE+MTONE).

c.

Press

Enter

.
