70 Keysight M8194A 120 GSa/s Arbitrary Waveform Generator User Guide
3 M8194A Soft Front Panel
• Standard Cable
This check box activates the application of correction factors based on
a typical 2.4 mm connector, high-quality, high-bandwidth 0.85m cable
(Huber+Suhner type N4910-61601).
Additional Waveform Parameters Section
• Waveform Length
It is an indicator only. The length is in samples of the resulting segment.
• Max. Length
Maximum waveform length should be used to force the resulting
waveform to be shorter or equal to a limit set by the user.
• Keep Sample Rate
This check box preserves the sampling rate to a user-defined value
irrespective of any other defined signal parameter. Keeping the
sampling rate to a fixed value may be necessary when multiple
waveforms are created for usage in a sequence or scenario. By default,
this check box is selected. The “Set WL to Max” check box gets
activated when this check box is selected
• Set WL to Max
This check box is only available when “Keep Sample Rate” is selected.
When this option is selected, the waveform calculation algorithm
always takes the maximum waveform length as defined in the “Max.
Wfm. Length”. As the waveform length must always be identical for all
four channels, it is recommended to check the “Set WL to Max” box in
case different waveforms shall be downloaded to different channels.
• Sample Rate
It is the final DAC conversion rate for the resulting signal. It may be set
by the user or automatically calculated depending on other signal
parameters.
Marker Mode
These controls are available when the “Single Channel with Marker” or
“Dual Channel with Marker” mode is selected in the Output tab. See
Output Tab on page 44.
• Ch. 2 (Marker 1)
Marker 1 is output on Channel 2. Signaling the beginning of the
Channel 1 waveform may be activated (Segment selection) and
deactivated (None selection).
