Figure 3-6, Sine Waveform Loaded Into Segment 2

Figure 3-7, Pulse Waveform Loaded Into Segment 3

Figure 3-8

shows a sequence of waveforms that were stored

in three different memory segments. Note that segment
number 2 is generated first and repeated twice, segment 3
follows once and then segment 1 is repeated four times.

Sequence Commands

The following is an overview of how to define and program a
sequence of arbitrary waveforms.
