The multitone waveform is now available at the signal generator’s RF OUTPUT connector.
Applying Changes to an Active Multitone Signal
If the multitone generator is currently in use (
Multitone Off On
set to On) while changes are made
in the
Multitone Setup
table editor, you must
apply
the changes before the updated waveform
will be generated.
From the
Multitone Setup
table editor, press the following key to apply the changes and
generate a multitone waveform based on the updated values:

Storing a Multitone Waveform
In this example, you learn how to store a multitone waveform. If you have not created a multitone
waveform, complete the steps in the previous section,

.
The multitone waveform is now stored in the
Catalog of MTONE Files
.
The RF output amplitude, frequency, and operating state settings are not
stored as part of a multitone waveform file. Similarly, the multitone
settings are not stored as part of the instrument state. Therefore, in most
cases you should save both the instrument states and the multitone
settings to be able to restore all of your settings later.
