Theory of Operation
Waveform Playback
Scenario Advance Mode
The play table can be configured to play a scenario once or continuously after
starting.
• Single
The scenario plays once and then waits for a trigger. While waiting for a trigger,
the value of the last waveform continues to play. If the scenario pointer does not
change, a Start trigger or Jump trigger causes the scenario to play again. If the
scenario pointer changes, the next Start trigger or Jump trigger will start the new
scenario. The effect of a scenario jump trigger received before the end of the
scenario is determined by the scenario jump mode.
• Continuous
The scenario repeats indefinitely until it is stopped or a scenario jump trigger is
received.
The scenario exit is dependent on the scenario jump mode.
