carried out the same way as done when Creating a Sine Wave.
With the Square waveform and the Duty (Duty Cycle) operation button
pressed, a Square waveform is shown on the Waveform Display and Duty
Cycle is shown on the Waveform Detail dialog.
Duty Cycle is entered as the percentage of the High Level taking up the
whole period.
