Using the Pattern Generator
Building Test Vectors and Functions
Merge is not allowed in the following cases:
•Within a repeat loop.
•Within an IF block (starting with the vector prior to the if, and ending with
the vector following the IF).
•Between the start and first vector of the main sequence.
•After the last vector of the main sequence.
•Between the init and main sequence.
•Between the start and first vector of the init sequence.
•Within an empty init sequence (insert one vector in the init and merge
after that vector).
CopySelecting the Copy field brings up a pop-up menu that lets you select
vector sequence lines to be copied and a location to insert them. The
values in the Start, End, and Copy After fields can be selected with the
knob or with the pop-up keypad that appears when the appropriate
field is selected twice.
Copy will not be performed if you run out of function calls (1000) or
repeats (1000). Copy will not be allowed if the result of the copy places
an instruction on one of the following vectors:
•The first vector of the INIT sequence.
•The first vector of the MAIN sequence.
•The last vector of the MAIN sequence.
•The vector prior to the IF block.
•The first vector of the IF block.
•The last vector of the IF block.
•The vector following the IF block.
