There are four local arbitrary waveform stores numbered
1
to
4
. The number is shown next to the
file name in the
Local:
Box. Initially the files are all set to the default four point square-wave.
Thefile names are set as
ARB1
to
ARB4
by default but they may be changed as they are used.
Each arbitrary waveform store can hold a waveform with a maximum of 65536 points. It is also
possible to store a waveform of up to 131072 points in stores
1
or
3
. In this case waveforms
2
or
4
will be deleted and will show as below.
There are two operations available for waveform files as shown by the soft-key labels
Copy
and
Delete
. The copy operation will not be available if no USB flash drive is attached.
Copy
The copy operation allows waveform files to be copied between local storage and an attached USB
flash drive.
To copy a file from local to disk:
1. Select the
Local:
Box by pressing the
Local
soft-key.
2. Select the file to be copied.
3. Press the
Copy
soft-key.
4. Optionally modify the name of the file to receive the copy. This will default to the name of the
file selected in step 2 above if it is not modified.
The screen below shows an example after performing the above actions. Here the file in store
3
will be saved to a waveform file on disk. The name will be
ARB3
unless it is changed.
Pressing the
Copy
soft-key will then show the following.
