6. Select Load from the bottom menu.
7. Use the general purpose knob to select the name of the DSO instrument
connected to the instrument and the transferring source from the Name
column in the GPIB Source list. In this example, you should select “Tek
TDS CH1.” See Figure 2 -65.

8. Set the DSO GPIB address to 1 and its communication mode to talk/listen.
NOTE. If the DSO GPIB debug mode is On, a time–out error may occur. If so,
switch off the debug mode.
9. Select Select Source Address from the side menu.
10. Use the general purpose knob to set the address to 1 which is the same as the
GPIB address of the load source DSO.
11. Select Load from the side menu.
When this is done, the waveform data will be transferred from the DSO
instrument to the AWG2021. The transferred waveform data will be loaded
into the internal memory of the AWG2021 under the name shown in the
“Loaded as” column of the GPIB Source list. In this example, the waveform
file is named “TDSCH1.WFM.” The clock, amplitude, and offset values
obtained from the waveform preamble are loaded into the waveform file as
setup data, together with the waveform data.
NOTE. If the amplitude, offset, or clock is outside the range that can be set for
the AWG2021, it is replaced with the maximum or minimum value that can be
set. If an attempt is made to transfer a waveform that exceeds any of these
ranges, a message to that effect is displayed.
