Dual Arbitrary Waveform Generator

Using the Dual ARB Waveform Player

Generating the Second Waveform

Use the following steps to generate a new multitone waveform with nine tones. During waveform generation, the M-TONEand I/Q annunciators activate. The waveform is stored in volatile memory with the default file name AUTOGEN_WAVEFORM.

1.Press Mode > Multitone > Initialize Table > Number Of Tones > 9 > Enter > Done.

2.Generate the waveform: press Multitone Off On to On.

3.Because a waveform cannot be renamed as a segment while it is in use, turn off Multitone mode now that the waveform has been generated: press Multitone Off On to Off.

Creating the Second Waveform Segment

In the following steps, the second waveform segment is renamed and remains in volatile memory as a WFM1 file.

1.Press Mode > Dual ARB > Waveform Segments > Load Store to Store.

2.Highlight the default segment AUTOGEN_WAVEFORM.

3.Press More (1 of 2) > Rename Segment > Editing Keys > Clear Text.

4.Enter a file name (for example, MTONE) using the alpha keys and the numeric keypad.

5.Press Enter.

Building and Storing a Waveform Sequence

This example shows how to build and edit a waveform sequence using two waveform segments. If you have not created the waveform segments, complete the steps in “Creating Waveform Segments” on page 100. If you need to save or load waveform segments, see “Storing and Loading Waveform Segments” on page 103.

Selecting the Waveform Segments

Use the following steps to define a sequence as one repetition of the two-tone waveform segment followed by one repetition of the nine-tone multitone waveform segment.

1.Press Mode > Dual ARB > Waveform Sequences > Build New Waveform Sequence > Insert Waveform.

2.Highlight the first waveform segment (for example, TTONE) and press Insert Selected Waveform.

3.Highlight the second waveform segment (for example, MTONE) and press Insert Selected Waveform.

4.Press Done Inserting.

Storing the Waveform Sequence

Store the sequence under a new name to the Catalog of Seq Files in the memory catalog.

1.Press Name and Store.

2.Enter a file name (for example, TTONE+MTONE) using the alpha keys and the numeric keypad.

3.Press Enter.
