220 Keysight CXG, EXG, and MXG X-Series Signal Generators Programming Guide
Creating and Downloading Waveform Files
The signal generator provides two types of memory, volatile and non–volatile.
You can download files to either memory type.
Volatile
Random access memory that does not survive cycling
of the signal generator power. This memory is
commonly referred to as (WFM1) or waveform playback
memory. To play back waveforms, they must reside in
volatile memory. The following file types share this
memory:
The X-Series ARB Waveform File Cache is limited to 128 files.
Consequently, once the 128 file cache limit has been reached, the
waveform switching speed will be much slower for files loaded into the
volatile (BBG). For cache information, always refer to the Data Sheet for
the current information.
