The Graphical Waveform Editor
3-60 AWG710&AWG710B Arbitrary Waveform Generator User Manual
The instrument replaces, inserts, adds, or multiplies the edit area with the
specified standard waveform data.

Parameter Description
Type Specifies the type of standard function waveform to create. You can select Sine,
Triangle, Square, Ramp, DC, Gaussian Noise, or Random Noise.
Operation Selects how the standard function waveform is added to the edit area.
Replace replaces the edit area data with the specified standard function
waveform. This operation does not change the waveform data record length.
Insert inserts the standard function waveform at the active cursor position. This
operation increases the waveform data record length by the amount of the
inserted waveform.
Add replaces the edit area data with the sum of the current edit area data and
the specified standard function waveform. This operation does not change the
waveform data record length.
Mul replaces the edit area data with the product of the current edit area data and
the standard function waveform. This operation does not change the waveform
data record length.
Cycle Specifies the number of function waveform cycles to insert in the specified cursor
area. The range of values is from 0.1 to 100,000 in 0.000001 to 0.001
increments. The default value is 1 cycle.
If the Operation field is set to Replace, Add, or Mul, the Cycle field value
determines the Frequency field value according to the equation
Frequency = Cycle x clock frequency / data length.
Frequency Specifies the frequency of the function waveform to insert in the specified cursor
area. The range of values is from 0.1 Hz to 500 MHz, with 9–digit accuracy.
If the Operation field is set to Replace, Add, or Mul, the Frequency field
determines the Cycle field value according to the equation
Cycle = Frequency x data length / clock frequency.
