Chapter 2 About Arbitrary Waveforms
Waveform Types
Waveform Types
TEGAM 2411B arbitrary waveform generators can create two types of waveforms, namely standard
waveforms and user-defined waveforms. In addition, if you have installed the optional Sequence
Generator in the 2411B, you may loop and link up to 100 user-defined waveforms.
Standard Waveforms
You may access 20 commonly used standard waveforms from the front panel. These waveforms are not
available for the sequence generator from the front panel.
User-defined Waveforms (Arbitrary Waveforms)
You must create user-defined waveforms on a PC and download them to the memory of the 2411B or
you must create them using the EDIT mode. You may use the optional WaveWorks Pro + software to
create user-defined waveforms. User-defined waveforms are utilized to create sequence steps in the
optional sequence operation.
Sequence Waveforms (Optional)
You can create a virtual waveform using the user-defined waveforms in the waveform memory and
repeating the waveforms any number of times without increasing the size of the waveform memory.
Each step is defined with one of the user-defined waveforms and the number of repetition of this wave-
form. You may create up to 1000 steps utilizing up to 100 user-defined waveforms in each sequence
waveform.
