Tutorial 3: Creating and Editing Standard Function Waveforms
This tutorial shows you how to create a new waveform by combining two standard
function waveforms in the waveform editor. You will create a sine wave and then
multiply the sine waveform by another sine waveform.
In this tutorial you will learn the following:
How to reset the instrument to factory defaults
How to open the waveform editor
How to create a standard function waveform
How to do a waveform mathematical operation
How to save and output the new waveform
Reset the Instrument
Do the following steps to reset the instrument to factory default settings:
1. Push the UTILITY button on the front–panel to display the UTILITY menu
screen.
2. Push the Factory Reset side menu button.
The SETUP menu screen appears.
3. Push the OK side button. The instrument is reset to the factory default setting.
Open the Waveform Editor
Do the following steps to open the waveform editor screen:
1. Push the EDIT button on the front–panel.
2. Push the Edit bottom menu button.
3. Push the New Waveform side menu button.
The instrument displays the waveform editors initial screen as shown in Figure
2-35.
NOTE. If the Factory Reset side menu item is not shown, push the System bottom
menu button, and then push the Factory Reset side menu button.
