The Graphical Waveform Editor
3-74 AWG710&AWG710B Arbitrary Waveform Generator User Manual
Compare... Creates a new waveform that is the comparison
of the active window and a specified window
data points. Refer to page 3-75for information on
the Compare dialog box.
There are no restrictions on the data lengths of
the two source waveforms. The resultant
waveform’s data length is equal in length to the
shortest of the source waveforms. You can also
set comparison hysteresis levels.
Standard Compare. The new waveform
consists of logical 0 and 1 values. If the source
level exceeds the reference signal level, the
comparison result is a one. If the source level is
less than the reference signal level, the
comparison result is a 0. See Figure 3-13.
Hysteresis Compare. The new waveform
consists of logical zero and 1 values. If the
source level exceeds the reference signal level
by the specified hysteresis amount, the
comparison result is a one. If the source level is
less than the reference signal level by the
specified hysteresis amount, the comparison
result is a zero. See Figure 3-13.
Convolution... Creates a new waveform that is the convolution
value of the points in the source waveform.
Refer to page 3-76 for information on the
Convolution dialog box. Refer to page F-4 for the
convolution algorithm.
Correlation... Creates a new waveform that is the correlation
value of the points in the source waveform.
Refer to page 3-77 for information on the
Correlation dialog box. Refer to page F-5 for the
correlation algorithm.
Digital Filter... Creates a new waveform by applying a
user–defined digital filter to the source waveform
data values. Refer to page 3-78 for information
on the Digital Filter dialog box.
Re–Sampling... Changes the active editor window clock
frequency or data record length (number of
points). This command changes the data values
of the entire waveform record in the active editor
window. Refer to page 3-79 for information on
the Re–sample dialog box.
