waveform with two points. By default, point 1 is located at 0 s and point 1 is
located at half of the specified period.
Press InitPoint and use to set the number of initial points of the new
waveform and the number of arbitrary waveform points can be up to 16384 (16
kpts).
2. Interpolation
Press Interp to turn the interpolation between the defined waveform points on
or off.
ON: the waveform editor will connect two defined points with a straight line.
OFF: the waveform editor will hold a constant voltage level between two
defined points and create a step waveform.
