Custom Arb Waveform Generator

Working with Filters

9.Press More (1 of 2) > Display FFT (fast Fourier transform).

A graph displays the fast Fourier transform of the current set of FIR coefficients. The signal generator has the capability of graphically displaying the filter in both time and frequency dimensions.

10.Press Return > Display Impulse Response.

A graph shows the impulse response of the current set of FIR coefficients.

11.Press Return > Load/Store > Store To File.

The Catalog of FIR Files appears along with the amount of memory available.

12.If there is already a file name occupying the active entry area, press: Edit Keys > Clear Text

13.Using the alphabetic menu and the numeric keypad, enter NEWFIR1 as the file name.

14.Press Enter.

The NEWFIR1 file is the first file name listed. (If you have previously stored other FIR files, additional file names are listed below NEWFIR1.) The file type is FIR and the size of the file is 260 bytes. The amount of memory used is also displayed. The number of files that can be saved depends on the size of the files and the amount of memory used.
