1.
First, create or load 16,777,216 waveform data points into arbitrary waveform memory. For more
information, please see the
Creating an Arbitrary Waveform
2.
Save all 16,777,216 points into ARB Wave 1 using the “Save ARB” key in the SETUPS menu.
3.
Reference each waveform in the memory bank according to their starting point and length. Using
the “Store” key in the SETUPS menu, save the parameters for each waveform to separate Setup
memory locations as follows:
Setup 1 ARB parameters: Start address = 1; Length = 1,000,000 points
Setup 2 ARB parameters: Start address = 1,000,001; Length = 5,000,000 points
Setup 3 ARB parameters: Start address = 6,000,002; Length = 4,000,000 points
Setup 4 ARB parameters: Start address = 10,000,003; Length = 6,000,000 points
To save edited arbitrary waveforms into Waveform Memory, the instrument will display a message
"SAVE DATA" after each modification of the arbitrary waveform in the EDIT menu. Please note that any
subsequent saving of data will rewrite the entire arbitrary waveform memory bank. Therefore, in order
to properly segment the entire range of points in Waveform Memory for Setup recall, the full length of
data points should be saved to Waveform Memory first.
Note:
Since it is impossible to guarantee 100% of the time against loss of stored data, you should
maintain a record of the data stored in memory so that you can manually restore such data, if
necessary.

Displaying Errors
At power-on, the waveform generator performs a diagnostic routine to check itself for problems. If the
diagnostic routine finds an error, an error message is displayed. The waveform generator also displays
error messages when front-panel settings are either invalid or may produce unexpected results.
Message Text
Cause
Out of range
Attempt to set variable out of instrument limits.
Setting conflict
Can't have this parameter set with some other.
