Compiling Arbitrary Waveform Input 
 
In order to generate arbitrary waveforms, it is 
requested to use a specifically control software on 
external PC which transfers data, via USB interface, 
to the arbitrary waveform memory with ASR-2000. 
Go to GWInstek official website to download the 
ARB waveform compiling program. 
  Arbitrary waveforms cannot be changed when 
output is on. To change arbitrary waveform, make 
sure the output is off beforehand. 
  It is not allowed to compile the arbitrary waveform 
memory directly from ASR-2000. Only connecting 
with a PC with control software via USB interface 
can complete it. 
  Arbitrary waveform memory count: 16 
  Arbitrary waveform length: 4096 words 
  Arbitrary waveform data: 16-bit binary (2’s 
complement format) 
  Valid range of waveform data: -32767 to 32767 
When a value greater than 32767 is input, 
waveform data will be clipped to 32767. Also, 
when a value less than -32767 is input, the 
waveform data will be clipped to -32767.
