How to Clone a waveform 

You can clone the waveform of one or both channels between two cursors, and save it 
in the internal memory or on a  USB memory device.  You can save four  cloned 
waveforms  in the  instrument internal memory.  The waveform files saved to a USB 
memory device are saved with the extension "ota".   

You can also use OWON AG1022F or AG2052F signal generator to read *.ota files 
and recall the cloned waveforms. 

Clone Wave menu
