17. Click the Operations List tab on the Waveform Sequencer to select

the Jump to operation from the Operation List tab. With the Jump
To operation selected, add it to the sequencer by clicking the Add
Waveform
button.

NOTE

: Don't use a

jump to Address

when prompted by the

Jump to

parameters window

.

18. Now, press the Run/Stop button on the ARBStudio toolbar.

The software loads the settings and the digital waveforms into the
ArbStudio 1102/1104 instrument and starts generating the
waveforms.

19. Waveform1 is generated on the Pod A probe. You can connect a

logic analyzer to the probes and analyze the generated signals.

20. Stop generating digital waveforms by pressing the Run/Stop button

again.

Creating Waveforms Using Formulas

Overview

When creating standard analog and digital waveforms, sine and
squarewave (rectangular) types are commonly used (alone or in
combination with other waveshapes).

However, when waveform creation cannot be accomplished using simple
combinations of standard waveform types, importing waveforms from a
measurement instrument
, file, or creating it analytically using equations
or formulae
are ideal methods. This section of the manual shows you how
to create various waveforms using formulas in ArbStudio.

The next topic in this section covers the standard steps used to create an
advanced waveform component using formulas. Remaining topics show
example formulas producing various waveform types.
