240 Keysight M8195A Revision 2 – Arbitrary Waveform Generator User’s Guide
6.21.2 Arbitrary Waveform Generation
To prepare your module for arbitrary waveform generation follow these steps:
 Set Instrument Mode (number of channels), Memory Sample Rate Divider,
and memory usage of the channels (Internal/Extended).
 Define a segment using the various forms of the
o :TRAC[1|2|3|4]:DEF command.
 Fill the segment with sample values using
o :TRAC[1|2|3|4]:DATA.
 Signal generation starts after calling INIT:IMM.
 Use the :TRAC[1|2|3|4]:CAT? query to read the length of a waveform loaded
into the memory of a channel. Use the :TRAC[1|2|3|4]:DEL:ALL command to
delete a waveform from the memory of a channel.
6.21.3 TRACe[1|2|3|4]:MMODe[?]
Command
:TRAC[1|2|3|4]:MMOD[?]
Long
:TRACe[1|2|3|4]:MMODe[?]
Parameters
INTernal|EXTended
 INTernal – the channel uses Internal Memory
 EXTended – the channel uses Extended Memory
 NONE – the channel is not used in this configuration (query only)
Parameter Suffix
None
Description
Use this command or query to set or get the source of the waveform samples for a
channel. There are dependencies between this parameter, the same parameter for
other channels, the memory sample rate divider and the instrument mode (number of
channels). The tables in section 1.5.5 show the available combinations. It is
recommended to set these parameters in one transaction. The value of this
parameter for each channel determines the target (Internal/Extended Memory) of the
waveform transfer operation using the TRAC:DATA command.
Example
Command
Set 2-channel instrument mode, memory sample rate divider = 2, channels 1 and 4
use the extended memory. Channels 2 and 3 are not used in this configuration.
