Using The Instrument 3-27
Memory
Management
Commands
Arbitrary memory can be divided into smaller segments; up to
4096 different arbitrary waveforms can be generated with the
Model 3152A. The length of each segment is left totally to the
user’s discretion. To partition the arbitrary waveform memory,
use the following command:
TRACe: DEFine <segment_number>,<length>
Note that numbers, not names, are assigned to segments that
are defined. Numbers can range from 1 through 4096. The order
of assignment is not important as long as the size of the
segments, having already been defined, is not changed. You
cannot query the TRAC:DEF command so you must keep good
track if you intend to partition the memory into many segments.
If a mistake is made and removal of one or more segments from
the active directory is needed, use the following command:
TRACe: DELete <n>
where <n> is the number of the segment to be removed from
memory. Note that if a segment is deleted, the memory portion
that belonged to this segment is no longer accessible. The next
segment that is defined will be placed after the last defined
memory segment. However, if the last segment is deleted, the
next downloaded segment will be written on top of the deleted
one. There is danger that by using the TRAC:DEL command
often large portions of memory will remain unused. It is,
therefore, recommended to periodically clear the entire memory
and only reload waveforms that will be used.
To partition the memory from the beginning, use the following
command:
TRACe:DELete:
ALL
CAUTION
This command will destroy waveforms that were
previously loaded into memory. After using this
command, waveform segments will line-up from
address 0 upwards.
