3. Push the OK side button.
Use the EDIT menu to rename a created file or move it to another directory.
If you use the HARDCOPY button to produce a hardcopy file, a file name such
as TEK00000.BMP is automatically assigned as the file name. The “TEK”
substring is fixed. The “00000” substring indicates the counter value, which is
reset to 0 each time you power on the instrument. Hereafter, it is incremented by
1 each time a hardcopy is produced. The extension is either ‘BMP’ or ‘TIF’,
depending on the specified format. The output destination drive will be as
specified in the UTILITY menu. The drive and path are the current drive and
directory of the GPIB that are set when the Hardcopy command is received
from the GPIB.
If you use the GPIB command to produce a hardcopy, you must specify the
output filename using the filename only. Refer to the AWG610 Arbitrary
Waveform Generator Programmer Manual for more details.
Calibration and Diagnostics
The AWG610 Arbitrary Waveform Generator can perform calibration and tests
on the internal hardware. This function requires minimal time to perform,
requires no additional equipment, and tests the internal hardware of the
instrument. They can be used to quickly determine if the instrument is suitable
for service.
The calibration and diagnostics can be performed in the screen that appears when
you push UTILITY (front-panel)Diag (bottom).
The calibration updates the internal constants so that the instrument outputs
waveforms within the specified accuracy. See Figure 3–56 for the calibration
items and possible error codes.
