5.6 Transferring the Waveform and Settings
c) Transfer method
Click the button to the right of [Transfer Method] to display the list of transfer methods that
can be selected.
Depending on the waveform data, transfer in the
[Control Point Format] may not be possible. In
this case, the control point format cannot be selected and only
[Array Format]
can be selected.
The control point format is waveform data for generating waveforms through linear interpolation
inside the signal generator.
Control point data is created from the waveform data displayed on the waveform display screen
when the system setting screen is displayed.
For example, in the case of waveform data that involves complex changes such as noise, the number
of valid data points may not suffice. In such a case, the generation of control point format data is
stopped and the data is generated in the array format only.
The control point format has the advantage of a smaller amount of data compared to the array format,
which fits in the waveform memory of the main unit. Therefore, when using arbitrary waveforms
during sequence oscillation of the FG410/FG420, a larger number of waveform types can be used.
Note that the control point format data of this transfer method does not necessarily match the control
points on the interpolation editing screen.
The array format consists of data strings corresponding to waveform memory addresses. The data of
the control point format described previously is created from data in this array format.
d) Waveform memory size
If [Array Format] is selected as the transfer format, [Memory Size] becomes selectable. In the
case of
[Control Point Format]
, manipulation is not possible.
Click the button to the right of [Memory Size] to display the list of waveform memory sizes
that can be selected.
Either click on an item in the list or select a size by pressing the
↑ ↓ → ← keys.
When wishing to simply output an arbitrary waveform, a larger size is more convenient, but if
wishing to use arbitrary waveform data for sequence oscillation, a larger size limits the arbitrary
waveforms that can be used.
e) Transfer execution
Click the
Transfer Data
button or press
Alt
+
T
to transfer the generated waveform data to the
signal generator and output that waveform.
To output different arbitrary waveforms from
CH1
and
CH2
on the
FG420
, transfer the
waveform data to the waveform memory of the different numbers, because the waveform memory
is shared between
CH1
and
CH2
.
f) Read execution
Click the
Read Data
button or press
Alt
+
R
to read waveform data from the main unit. The read
waveform data is displayed on the waveform display screen.
If the waveform data that was read from the main unit was control point format data, the control
points can be changed on the interpolation editing screen.
