This command creates a waveform sequence. A waveform sequence is made up of segments and other
sequences. Any number of segments, up to a segment count limit of 1024, can be used to create a
sequence. The count limit is determined by the number of segments in the waveform sequence.
Repeated segments are included in the count limit.
For example, using the figure below, suppose a waveform is created using two sequences: Sequence_A
and Sequence_B. Sequence_A consists of Sequence_B and Segment_Q with Sequence_B repeated four
times. The total segment count for this waveform sequence would be eleven.
The query returns the contents and segment settings of the waveform sequence file
The segments and sequences play in the same order as placed into the waveform sequence by the
command. Once you create the file, you cannot edit the segment settings or add further waveform
segments unless you use the signal generator’s front panel. Using the same waveform sequence name
overwrites the existing file with that name. To use a segment’s marker settings, you must enable the
segment’s markers within the segment or within the waveform sequence. A sequence is stored in the
catalog of SEQ files USER/SEQ or SEQ: directory.
When you create a waveform sequence, the Agilent MXG also creates a file header for the sequence.
This file header takes priority over segment or nested sequence file headers. Refer to the User’s
Guide for more information on file headers. To save the file header, see “:HEADer:SAVE” on
page 145.
"<file_name>" This variable names the waveform sequence file. For information on the file name
syntax, see “File Name Variables” on page 12.
"<waveform1>" This variable specifies the name of an existing waveform segment or sequence file.
A waveform segment or the waveform segments in a specified sequence must
reside in volatile memory, WFM1, before it can be played by the dual ARB player.
