MX Series 163
Custom waveforms cannot be created from the front panel of the MX Series.
Rather, they must be downloaded through one of the remote-control interfaces.
A Windows based program is included with the MX Series that allows waveforms
to be created and downloaded easily. This Graphical User Interface program
allows waveforms to be created by specifying harmonic amplitudes and phase
angles with respect to the fundamental. It also offers an arbitrary waveform
data entry mode that allows individual data points to be specified.

Once downloaded, waveforms remain in non-volatile memory and will be visible
in the WAVEFORMS menu for selection. The user can assign a 12-character
name to each custom waveform. Avoid using any of the standard waveform
names (SINE, SQUARE or CLIPPED) as these names will not be accepted.
Waveforms may be deleted using the remote-control interface as well. Custom
waveforms cannot be deleted from the front panel however to avoid accidental
erasure.
4.4.4 Waveform Groups
Waveform groups extend the number of available custom waveform to 200.
Each group can contain up to 50 user-defined waveforms. Groups are numbered
0 through 3 and may be selected from the INITIAL SETUP 3 menu. To switch
waveform groups, proceed as follows:
1) Press the MENU key three times to select the MENU 3 screen.
