Dual Arbitrary Waveform Generator

Using Waveform Markers

To Place Repetitively Spaced Markers 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 # Skipped Points > 2 > Enter.

8.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) every three points from point 10 to point 163830 in the selected waveform segment.

To Use Marker 2 to Blank the RF Output

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.

NOTE

RF blanking applies to Marker 2 only. Marker 1 does not blank the RF output. For more

 

information, see “Waveform Marker Concepts” on page 108.

 

 

1.Press Preset.

2.Press Mode > Dual ARB > Select Waveform.

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

4.Press Select Waveform.

5.Press Mode > Dual ARB > ARB Setup > Mkr 2 To RF Blank Off On.

6.Press Return > Arb On Off to On.

7.Press Waveform Segments > Load Store > Waveform Utilities > Set Markers > Marker 1 2 > Set Marker On Range of Points.

8.Press First Mkr Point > 10 > Enter.

9.Press Last Mkr Point > 163830 > Enter.

10.Press Apply To Waveform.
