Table 3-33: Sequence table columns
Column Description
Sequence file name Remains blank if you have not saved the sequence once after opening a
new file.
Line Sequence line number. It is assigned automatically here as a result of the
addition or deletion of a line.
CH1 Specifies the waveform or sequence file to output on CH 1 for that line of
the sequence table.
A sequence file may be specified for an output file. You can only nest
sequence files one level.
The waveform file name cannot contain a drive or directory name. The
sequence file and all waveform files called must be accessible at the same
directory level. If the waveform file name fields for CH1 is blank on a
sequence line, or the instrument cannot locate a specified file, the
instrument displays an error message and aborts loading the sequence
file.
The data length of each waveform file used for the sequence process must
be a multiple of 4 from 960 points to 32.4 M/64.8 M (option 01) ( 16.2 M/
32.4 M (option 01) :AWG710) points. For sequence output, the total of data
length of the waveforms must not exceed 32.4 M/64.8 M (option 01) ( 16.2
M / 32.4 M (option 01) :AWG710) points.
Repeat Count Specifies the number of repeats. You may specify any integer from 1 to
65536, or select the keyword Infinity. The Infinity setting is neglected in a
nested sequence file (subsequence).
Wait Trigger Causes the instrument to wait for a trigger event before outputting the
waveform(s) on the specified sequence table line. Valid values are On and
Off (blank). Wait Trigger functionality is only valid when the Run Mode is set
to Enhanced. This setting is neglected in the subsequence.
Goto <N> Specifies the number (n: 1 to 8000) and jumps to the specified sequence
table after outputting the current signal. Goto <N> functionality is only valid
when the Run Mode is set to Enhanced. This setting is neglected in the
subsequence.
Note that, for the last line of the sequence table, this setting is always 1
regardless of the setting.
Logic Jump Specifies the sequence table to jump to a specified line depending on
signal values on the EVENT IN connector. You may specify Next (go to the
next line) or Off (blank) as well as specify the sequence line number for the
destination. Selecting Off means that the line that is currently being edited
is set as a jump address. For example, when an event occurs during the
output of the waveform set in the line 5 with jump off, the waveform in the
line 5 is output again from the top. This field remains gray if the Jump Mode
is set to Table or Software. This setting is neglected in the subsequence or
when the jump mode is set to Software.
