The User Macros Menu

The User Macros menu is used to create new functions and edit

existing functions. Function 0 is the default function and always exists.

Functions let you define a pattern sequence once, then insert the

function by name wherever it is needed.

Functions can also have parameters passed to them. Parameters let

you create a generic function. For each instance of a function, you

specify unique values for the parameterized variable. Each function

can have a maximum of 10 parameters. A maximum of 100 different

functions can be defined for use in a single stimulus program.

Differences between User Macros and the INIT and MAIN sequences

are that functions cannot use the If instruction, and a function cannot

call another function.

The User Macros Menu

This section only covers the two unique fields in the User Macros menu

and using parameters. For information about other fields in this menu,

refer to the discussion of these fields in the previous section on the

Sequence Menu.
