VIEW (F): This mode can be used to display any of the
available user defined waveforms in a frequency domain
display. Waveform data is shown by harmonic amplitude and
phase relative to the fundamental frequency. Previewing a
waveform can be useful if you are unsure about the nature of
the waveform that was stored.
SINE The SINE is a standard waveform that is always available. It
does not consume any of the user defined waveform registers
and is always displayed in the waveform list. A right arrow
indicates the waveform is presently selected for the phase. If
the cursor is moved to this field, the ENTER key will execute the
selected MODE. If the mode is set to PROG, pressing ENTER
while the cursor is on the SINE entry will select the sine wave
for the phase shown in the top right corner of the display.
Note that the VIEW modes are not available for any of the three
standard waveforms.
SQUARE The SQUARE is a standard waveform that is always available.
It does not consume any of the user defined waveform registers
and is always displayed in the waveform list. A right arrow
indicates the waveform is presently selected for the phase. If
the cursor is moved to this field, the ENTER key will execute the
selected MODE. If the mode is set to PROG, pressing ENTER
while the cursor is on the SQUARE entry will select the square
wave for the phase shown in the top right corner of the display.
Note that the VIEW modes are not available for any of the three
standard waveforms.
CLIPPED The CLIPPED is a standard waveform that is always available.
It does not consume any of the user defined waveform registers
and is always displayed in the waveform list. A right arrow
indicates the waveform is presently selected for the phase. If
the cursor is moved to this field, the ENTER key will execute the
selected MODE. If the mode is set to PROG, pressing ENTER
while the cursor is on the CLIPPED entry will select the clipped
sine wave for the phase shown in the top right corner of the
display. The CLIP LEVEL field determines the amount of
clipping.
Note that the VIEW modes are not available for any of the three
standard waveforms.
USER DEFINED A list of user defined waveforms appears immediately below the
three standard waveforms. If no user-defined waveforms were
downloaded to the power source, this list will be blank. User
defined waveforms can be given a symbolic name of up to
twelve characters. The use of any of the three standard
waveform names (SINE, SQUARE and CLIPPED) should be
avoided, as the RS controller will reject it.
