Cycles
– The Cycles parameter defines how many sine cycles will
be created within the specified start and end anchor points. The
example below shows three sine cycles.
Start Phase
– The start phase parameter defines the angle at
which the sine will start. The example shows 0
°
start phase.
Power
– Sine to the power of 1 will generate a perfect sine. Power
range is from 1 through 9.
Tip
The functionality of the FM composer is similar to the
Wave composer. If you need more information on the FM
Composer functions and Equation Editor, refer to the
Wave Composer section in this manual.
The 3D Composer
The 3D Composer was specifically designed for simultaneous
profiling of amplitude, frequency and phase. Amplitude profiles can
be designed separately for channels 1 and 2, but frequency and
phase profiles are shared by both channels. The following
paragraphs will describe the various sections of the 3D composer
and will guide you through some 3D programming examples.
The opening screen of the 3D composer is shown in Figure 4-55.
As you can see it does not at all look like any of the other
composers that were described previously discussed however,
generating waveforms and programming profiles is very similar to
other composer so you will be up and running in no time.
