The Define Pulse Train dialog contains a table to edit the individual pulse segments; see below. The
buttons below the table extend, shorten, or re-order the segment list.
Add Segment adds a new segment to the list, assigning a Start High Signal value of 0 s, a Stop
High Signal value of 12.5 ns. If Auto Arrange is active the new segment is inserted at the
beginning of the list. The analyzer places no restriction on the number of ranges assigned to each
trace.
Delete Segment removes the selected segment from the list.
Del All Segments clears the entire segment list so it is possible to define or load a new pulse train
definition.
Auto Arrange sorts the segments in ascending order of the Start High Signal.
The buttons above the table are used to import and export pulse train data. Pulse train files are ASCII files
with the default extension *.train and a special file format.
Recall Pulse Train... calls up an Open File dialog to load a pulse train definition from a file.
Save Pulse Train... calls up a Save As... dialog to store the current pulse train definition to a pulse
train file.
Period denotes the duration of the entire pulse train. The period of the sync signal is adjusted to the pulse
train period as long as the pulse train signal type is active.
Columns in the segment table
The table contains an automatically assigned current number for each segment/pulse plus the following
editable columns:
Active indicates whether the segment is active (checkbox selected) or inactive. Clearing the
checkbox does not delete the segment but suppresses the pulse in the generator signal.
Start High Signal is the start time of the segment.
Stop High Signal is the stop time of the segment.
The minimum pulse width (the difference Stop High Signal – Start High Signal) is 12.5 ns.
Segments/pulses may overlap, however, the largest Stop High Signal value must not exceed the pulse
train Period.

Define Sync Generator
Defines the properties of the sync signal (Gen 2). This dialog is called from the Define Pulse Generator
dialog.
