Overview
MODE Menu | Use the MODE menu to set the operation mode. There are two |
| main types of operation modes: the trigger modes (Cont, |
| Triggered, Gated and Burst) and the modes in which |
| waveforms are output in sequence for each trigger (Waveform |
| Advance and Autostep). This menu also has an item for |
| setting the timing with which synchronization signals are |
| generated. See Section 3 for more information. |
|
|
EDIT Menu | The EDIT menu incorporates four types of editors: the |
| waveform editor, the equation editor, the sequence editor and |
| the autostep editor. Editing can be performed for each file type. |
| Instruments with Option 09 installed have an FFT editor to |
| permit editing in the freguency domain and a convolution editor |
| to operate the waveforms convolution in high speed. |
| The EDIT menu displays a list of files stored in internal |
| memory. New files can be created or existing files can be |
| selected from this list and edited. See Section 3 for further |
| information. |
|
|
LOAD/SAVE Menu | Press the LOAD/SAVE bottom button to select the appropriate |
| menu. |
| See Section 3 for further information. |
| LOAD Menu. Used when loading files from a floppy disk or |
| non;volatile internal RAM (NVRam) into the internal memory of |
| the AWG2021, or from another instrument through the GPIB |
| interface. |
| SAVE Menu. Used when saving files from the internal memory |
| of the AWG2021 to a floppy disk or to the instrument's |
| NVRam. |
|
|
UTILITY Menu | Use the UTILITY menu to work on the files saved to a floppy |
| disk or the instrument's NVRam, to set the parameters for the |
| GPIB or RS;232;C interface, to execute diagnosis or calibration |
| of the instrument, or to set other instrument parameters. See |
| Section 3 for further information. |

|
(10) ← and → Buttons | Use the arrow buttons to shift to the right/left of the input digit |
| or position when a numeric value or character is input using the |
| general purpose knob. The digit input numeric value is |
| indicated at the underscore. Hold down these arrow buttons to |
| shift in succession. |
|
|
(11) CURSOR Button and | Use the CURSOR button to select a field or switch the active |
Indicator | cursor. The function of CURSOR button is different depending |
| on each menu. |
| When the LED indicator is illuminated, cursor function is |
| activated. When special CURSOR button movement is |
| required, a description of the CURSOR button is displayed on |
| the screen. |
