Point-by-point Output/Play Mode
The function/arbitrary waveform generator supports point-by-point output of arbitrary waveform. In point-by-point output
mode, the signal generator automatically calculates frequency of output signal (476.837158203Hz) according to
waveform length (e.g. 1,048,576 points) and sampling rate. The signal generator outputs waveform points one by one with
this frequency. Point-by-point output mode can prevent loss of important waveform point. The default is “No”. In such a
case, arbitrary waveform is output with fixed length (16k points) and frequency in parameter list through automatic
interpolation of software or test count. To change it, you can use the multi-functional control and direction keys on the
interface for using arbitrary wave function or press Play Mode. When play mode is activated, the frequency and phase will
be displayed in the parameter list.
