File Conversion
AWG710&AWG710B Arbitrary Waveform Generator User Manual 3-221
Format 2: Repetitions of three numeric values listed on a line:
0.1,1,0
0.2,0,1
0.3,0,0
One line corresponds to 1 point. The first value is the analog data, and the
subsequent two are markers 1 and 2. For marker data, values larger than 0.5 are
regarded as 1, and the others as 0.
Export
AWG710&AWG710B Arbitrary Waveform Generator waveform files can be
converted into the following files. You may use a format including marker data and
one not including it.
Waveform to text file
Waveform to text file with marker
For both file types, 1–point data is written on a line. The return code is CR/LF.
If no marker is included:
1.0
0.5
-0.9
0.1
If markers are included:
1.0,1,1
0.5,0,1
-0.9,1,0
0.1,0,0
Convert between Waveform and Pattern
AWG710&AWG710B Arbitrary Waveform Generator waveform files and pattern
files can be converted from one form to the other.
Waveform to Pattern
Pattern to Waveform
In this conversion, the marker data is always inherited.
