Saving and Recalling Settings

Arbitrary Waveforms

Having done all this work it would be wise to save the settings for future use. You can do this simply by pressing the STORE key, followed by a number in the range 1 to 9 and the ENTER key. Store 0 is reserved for the factory default settings. You can recall the set-up at any time using the RECALL key.

Arbitrary waveforms are best defined on a PC and downloaded to the instrument via the RS232 or GPIB interface. Each is identified by a name with up to 16 characters.

Several commonly-used waveforms are available from the internal read-only memory (ROM) and can be recalled by pressing the EDIT then the ARB keys.

The display will look something like this:

RECALL ARB No: 14

SINX/X

ENTER TO EXECUTE

Or possibly like this:

RECALL ARB No: 03

ARB 03 IS EMPTY

ENTER TO EXECUTE

The ROM is used for the factory-preset waveforms 06 to 21 inclusive, and the internal non-volatile RAM is used for

23
