Program Pattern File
In program sweep, a text file created on a PC or a similar device is stored in the
PROGRAM directory on the internal non-volatile disk (GS610ROM). The file is selected
as a pattern file to carry out the sweep operation.
Sample.csv that is stored in the PROGRAM directory when the GS610 is shipped from
the factory or when the disk is formatted is a sample pattern file.
Pattern File Description
A pattern file consists of a list of source values. Each value is delimited by a line feed
code (CR, LF, CR+LF). The value format is an integer, fixed-point number, or floating-
point number without a unit.
For example, a pattern file that changes from 0 to 5 in 1.25 steps is written as follows:
0.00
1.25
2.50
3.75
5.00
The same pattern file can also be written using floating-point numbers as follows:
0.00E+0
1.25E+0
2.50E+0
3.75E+0
5.00E+0
