% A simple example of how to create a waveform, open a
% session to the Agilent N8241A AWG, play the waveform,
% and close the session.
% Note: the waveform must be configured before
downloading.
% If settings are changed after downloading the
waveform,
% the waveform must be re-downloaded.

% Create a waveform - a sine wave with 2000 pts
% Played at 1250 MHz, this will produce a tone of 1.250
MHz

samples = 1:numberOfSamples;
ch1 = sin(2 * samples/numberOfSamples * 2*pi);
ch2 = cos(2 * samples/numberOfSamples * 2*pi);
