Figure 3-2, Sequence Table Created in ArbConnection
The following is an overview of how to define and program a
sequence of arbitrary waveforms.
A sequence is made of a series of links. A link can stand on its own
or link to another step. It is possible to have only one link in a
sequence, but the output will be a continuous waveform. If only one
link is specified and the 3152B is placed in Triggered advance
mode, then the output will behave as it would in Burst mode, where
the repeat number replaces the burst count parameter.
The easiest way to create a sequence table is with ArbConnection.
Using this application you can define, create, and download
waveform segments to the waveform memory without using low
level commands. You may also use Waveform Studio to develop
sequences.
Use the following commands to write sequence tables:
seq:sel <1..10>
The 3152B can store ten separate
sequences, and this command selects the
active sequence. Once selected, the active
sequence is generated at the output
connector. Note that by selecting an active
sequence, you do not automatically change
the output to sequenced mode.
seq:def 1,1,10,0,1
This command defines a link. The
parameters are (from left to right) link
