Arbitrary Waveforms
9 Define the next waveform point.
Press the Point # softkey and then turn the knob to move to Point #2.
Press the Time softkey to set the time for the current point (this softkey
is not available for Point #1). Press the Voltage softkey to set the voltage
level for the current point.
For this example, set the time to 2 ms and the voltage level to 3.0 V.
Using the Time and Voltage softkeys, define the remaining waveform
points using the values shown in the table below.

• The time value of the last point that can be defined in the waveform
must be less than the specified cycle period.
• The waveform editor automatically connects the last waveform point
to the voltage level of first point to create a continuous waveform.
• To insert additional points after the current waveform point, press
the Insert Point softkey. The new point is inserted midway between
the current point and the next defined point.
• To remove the current waveform point, press the Remove Point
softkey. The remaining points are joined using the interpolation
method currently selected. You cannot remove Point #1 since the
waveform must have a defined initial value.
