Variation
FM Version ≥ 5.09.00
The Automotive industry is facing the necessity to investigate
the behavior of the battery voltage variations and their effects to
electronic components connected to the supply network of the
cars, testing emission and immunity.

    8.2. Basic Waves The AutoWave generates the waves like an arbitrary generator as PointWaves, where all samples are stored in a file. As an advantage the AutoWave firmware generates the waves as segmented waves from a parameter list. This has the advantage to save a lot of memory and to create waves who can not be realized by PointWaves.
