Basic Digital Operation (Option 651/652/654)
Waveform Sequences
a. Press More > Name and Store > Clear Text.
b. Enter a file name (for example, SINE100+RMP200).
c. Press Enter.
The edited sequence saves as a new waveform sequence.
Playing a Sequence
If you have not created a waveform sequence, refer to “Creating a Sequence” on page 75.
NOTE To play a waveform segment individually or as part of a waveform sequence, the segment
must reside in BBG media. See also, “Loading a Waveform Segment into BBG Media (Volatile
Memory)” on page 71.
1. Select a waveform sequence:
a. Press Mode > Dual ARB > Select Waveform.
b. Highlight a waveform sequence (for this example, SINE100+RMP200) from the Sequence On
column.
c. Press Select Waveform.
The display shows the currently selected waveform (for example, Selected Waveform:
SEQ:SINE100+RMP200).
2. Generate the waveform:
Press ARB Off On to On.
This plays the selected waveform sequence. During the waveform sequence generation, both the
I/Q and ARB annunciators turn on, and the waveform modulates the RF carrier.
3. Configure the RF output:
a. Set the RF carrier frequency.
b. Set the RF output amplitude.
c. Turn on the RF output.
The waveform sequence is now available at the signal generator’s RF OUTPUT connector.
