Dual Arbitrary Waveform Generator

Using Waveform Markers

Using Waveform Markers

Waveform markers provide auxiliary output signals that are synchronized with a waveform segment. You can place up to four markers on a waveform segment. However, only Marker 1 and Marker 2 can be placed using the waveform player’s user interface (for more information, refer to “Waveform Marker Concepts” on page 108).

Using markers, you can construct an output signal as a trigger to synchronize another instrument to a given portion of a waveform. You can also place markers into a waveform sequence, either as the sequence is being built or within an existing waveform sequence.

For instructions on verifying marker operation, see “To Verify Marker Operation” on page 107.

To Place a Marker at the First Point within a Waveform Segment

If you have not created a waveform segment, complete the steps in the previous sections, “Generating the First Waveform” on page 100 and “Creating the First Waveform Segment” on page 100.

1.Press Mode > Dual ARB > Waveform Segments.

2.Press Load Store.

3.Highlight a waveform segment (for example, TTONE).

4.Press Waveform Utilities > Set Markers > Set Marker On First Point.

This sets Marker 1 (selected by default) on the first point in the selected waveform segment.

To Place a Marker Across a Range of Points within a Waveform Segment

If you have not created a waveform segment, complete the steps in the previous sections, “Generating the First Waveform” on page 100 and “Creating the First Waveform Segment” on page 100.

1.Press Mode > Dual ARB > Waveform Segments.

2.Press Load Store.

3.Highlight a waveform segment (for example, TTONE).

4.Press Waveform Utilities > Set Markers > Set Marker On Range Of Points.

5.Press First Mkr Point > 10 > Enter.

6.Press Last Mkr Point > 163830 > Enter.

7.Press Apply To Waveform.

NOTE

The last marker point must be greater than or equal to the first marker point.

 

 

This activates Marker 1 (selected by default) from point 10 to point 163830 in the selected waveform segment.
