Wave Menu
The Wave menu lets you create waveforms on the screen. The Wave
command has a library of 6 waveforms: Sine, Triangle, Square, Ex-
ponent, Pulse, and Noise. It also lets you create waveforms using an
Equation editor. Information how to create waveforms using the
Wave menu is given below.
Creating Waveforms From the Built-in Library
You can create a waveform from the built-in library using the Wave
menu. Clicking on one of the Wave options opens a dialog box. An
example of the Sine waveform dialog box is shown in Figure 3-20.
This dialog box is similar to those of the other waveforms, so they will
not be described here.
Creating Sine Waveforms
Use the following procedure to create sine waveforms from the built-
in library. Click on Wave, then sine... the dialog box as shown in Fig-
ure 3-20 pops up. You can now start programming the parameters
available in this box.
Start Point Anchor – Defines the first point where the built-in library
wave begins. Note that if you change the start point the left anchor
automatically adjusts itself to the selected start point in the dialog
box. The example shows the start point set at point 200.
End Point Anchor – Defines where the created waveform ends.
Note that as you change the end point, the right anchor automatically
adjusts itself to the selected end point. The example shows the end
point set at point 500.
Max. Peak Deviation – This parameter defines the forward peak de-
viation. Note that the forward peak deviation cannot exceed the pre-
defined Deviation parameter as shown on the Toolbar. If you need to
exceed the pre-defined peak value you must quit this box and modify
the Deviation parameter to provide sufficient range for forward peak
deviation.
Min. Peak Deviation – This parameter defines the backward peak
deviation. Note that the backward peak deviation cannot exceed the
pre-defined Deviation parameter as shown on the Toolbar. If you
need to exceed the pre-defined peak value you must quit this box
and modify the Deviation parameter to provide sufficient range for
backwards peak deviation.
Cycles – The Cycles parameter defines how many waveform cycles
created within the specified start and end anchor points. The exam-
ple below shows three sine cycles.
