5.14.4 The start and end point
Here introduce the method of drawing vector lines to edit or modify the waveform. When XY
coordinate of one point is positioned, pressVector Startsoftkey then the green cursor line turns to
be white, where is defined as start point. Then, set the XY coordinate position of next point and
define the cross point of green cursor line to be end point. PressVector Endsoftkey, the instrument
will draw a piece of line between start and end points, then erase cursor line and vector line is ok.
5.14.5 Create Arbitrary Waveform
PressCreate Newsoftkey and delete the present waveform in edit window. Draw vector lines by
above mentioned method and set the end of last vector line to be next vector line start, make the
vector lines connected end to end then an arbitrary waveform is formed. Take a triangle for example,
you can operate as following steps,
(5) Set horizontal coordinate and vertical coordinate to be 0. PressVector Startsoftkey.
(6) Set horizontal coordinate to be 2048 and vertical coordinate to be16383. Press Vector End
softkey.
(7) PressVector Startsoftkey.
(8) Press horizontal coordinate to be 4095 and vertical coordinate to be 0. Press Vector End
softkey.
Until now, a triangle has been created. But user need to note that, the end point must be at right side
of start point, that’s to say, X coordinate value of end must be greater than start. Additionally, if you
want to output a waveform with continuous period, the vertical coordinate value should be equal for
two waveform points, that one horizontal coordinate is 0 and the other is 4095.
