Page 29: Installation
To properly install and power on the instrument, perform the following steps: 1. Check that the operating environment is correct. The DG2030 operates correctly in ambient temperatures from +10_ C to +40_ C and relative humidity from 20% to 80%. If the instrument is stored at temperatures outside this usage temperature range, do not switch on the power until the chassis has come within the operating temperature range.
Page 30 CAUTION. The DG2030 is shipped with a power cord appropriate for use with normal 115 V power systems. If the DG2030 is to be used with 230 V power, the power cord must be replaced with one appropriate for the power source used.

Page 48: Operating Modes Overview
Run Modes In the run modes, pattern output is controlled by the pattern generation unit’s pattern control circuit. The DG2030 supports four run modes: repeat, single, step, and enhanced. These run modes are specified with the SETUP → Run Mode menu. Table 2-3 provides functional information for each mode.
Page 49: Table 2-4: Update Modes
In such cases, it is more efficient to perform a number of edit operations and then update the output data in manual mode. 2 14 DG2030 User Manual Artisan Technology Group - Quality Instrumentation ... Guaranteed | (888) 88-SOURCE | www.artisantg.com...

Export Writes pattern data to mass memory (floppy disk). Data is written either as CSV data or as Tektronix AWG2000 Series waveform data. The write method is specified by setting a parameter in a popup menu. NOTE. Icon data and hardware setup data are not saved in the output AWG2000 Series waveform data.

Edit Menu Exporting Large Data. The DG2030 internal memory capacity can not export an 8-bit wide pattern data in CSV format that is larger than 32768 (32 k) words. For the data to write into a floppy disk, the pattern must be segmented into 32 k (32768 words) blocks and saved to separate floppy disks.
