EDIT Menu

There are no sub-menus associated with these commands; when they are selected, the copy or paste operation is performed instantly. Marker signals associated with that waveform data are also subjected to the copy and paste operations. Pasting data into a waveform will naturally increase the number of points in that waveform.

1.Specify the waveform to be copied with the left and right vertical bar cursors. Select Copy to Buffer from the displayed side menu.

When Copy to Buffer is selected, the waveform data between the vertical bar cursors (including the left and right vertical bar cursor data) is copied into the paste buffer. Marker signals associated with that waveform data are also subjected to the copy operation. This operation does not affect the display on the CRT.

2.Press the front panel CURSOR button.

3.Use the general purpose knob to specify the position to paste the data with whichever of the vertical bar cursors is active.

The data is pasted directly before the active vertical bar cursor. However, when the cursor is at the end of the waveform, the data is inserted directly after the cursor.

4.Select Paste from Buffer from the side menu.

Figure 3 -25 shows an example of a waveform before and after additional data is pasted into that waveform.
