Custom file arb waveforms (full arb)
The following figure summarizes the basic processes to create a custom full arb waveform file, to load
the file into a pulse card, and to output the pulse waveforms.
Figure 104: Basic process to create and output custom file Arb waveforms
To create custom file arb waveforms (full arb):
1. Select and configure waveforms.
 After you select an available waveform type, configure its settings, and name it, the waveform
is placed in the Scratch Pad.
 Waveforms remain in the Scratch Pad until they are deleted by the user.
 Refer to Waveform types (on page 5-13
) for information about the waveform types available
for custom file arb. Refer to Custom Arb file operation: Select and configure waveforms (on
page 5-10) for details.
2. Copy the waveforms into the Sequencer for Channel 1, Channel 2, or both:
 The order that two or more waveforms appear in a channel sequencer is the order that the
waveforms are output by that channel.
 Refer to Custom Arb file operation: Copy waveforms into Sequencer (on page 5-11
)
for details.
3. Save the waveforms in the Sequencer as a .kaf file. See Custom Arb file operation: Copy
waveforms into Sequencer (on page 5-11).
4. Load the .kaf waveform file into a pulse generator (using the appropriate pulse card tab): Refer
to Custom Arb file operation: Load waveform and turn on output (on page 5-12
) for details.
5. Turn on the output for enabled channels. See Custom Arb file operation: Load waveform and turn
on output (on page 5-12).
