5. Select the Arbitrary Waveform Function
[SOURce:]FUNCtion[:SHAPe] USER
This command selects the arbitrary waveform function. Couple the
command to the previous frequency command.
6. Set the Maximum Output Amplitude
[SOURce:]VOLTage[:LEVel][:IMMediate][:AMPLitude] <amplitude>
This command specifies the maximum output amplitude. The
amplitude must be equal or greater than the maximum voltage value
of the waveform segment. Refer to Table B-4 in Appendix B for the
amplitude limits.
7. Name the First Waveform Segment
[SOURce:]LIST[1][:SEGMent]:SELect <name>
This command names the first waveform segment.
8. Set the First Waveform Segment Size
[SOURce:]LIST[1][:SEGMent]:DEFine <length>
This command defines the size of the selected waveform segment.
9. Store the First Waveform Segment as Voltages
[SOURce:]LIST[1][:SEGMent]:VOLTage <voltage_list>
This command stores the first waveform segment into the AFG’s
segment memory.
10. Name the Second Waveform Segment
[SOURce:]LIST[1][:SEGMent]:SELect <name>
This command names the second waveform segment.
11. Set the Second Waveform Segment Size
[SOURce:]LIST[1][:SEGMent]:DEFine <length>
This command defines the size of the selected waveform segment.
12. Store the Second Waveform Segment as Voltages
[SOURce:]LIST[1][:SEGMent]:VOLTage <voltage_list>
This command stores the second waveform segment into the AFG’s
segment memory.
13. Name the Segment Sequence
[SOURce:]LIST[1]:SSEQuence:SELect <name>
This command names the segment sequence. The name must be
different from any segment names stored in memory.
14. Set the Segment Sequence Length
[SOURce:]LIST[1]:SSEQuence:DEFine <length>
This command defines the length of the selected segment sequence.
The length must be equal or greater than the number of the waveform
segments stored in memory.
