How It Works
Note: The import/export feature is available only for Arbitrary
waveforms, and is best used without dwell factors.
When you Export the wave pattern, the program writes the pattern
data to a text file (*.txt). The file consists of 1,024 pairs of x (latitudinal)
and y (longitudinal) coordinates with values ranging from –4.000
to + 4.000. Any existing dwell factors are converted to simple x,y values.
For example:
Let's say that you have a dwell factor of 50 located at the point
x=2, y=1. When you export the file, the program still exports
1,024 points but the dwell factors are removed and you see 50
pairs of x=2, y=1. When you import the file, there are no dwell
factors.
After exporting the pattern, you can open the file using any program
(such as Notepad or Excel) that can read *.txt files. You are able to
edit the x, y values as desired.
When you import the edited pattern, you can run the Simulator to verify
your changes. The program does not recalculate your point values
upon import. However, if you use Edit Pattern, Redraw, or add Dwell
Factors, the program recalculates values.
Note: Important! The program removes all Dwell Factors during the
import/export process. Do not add dwell factors after importing
your edited wave pattern; the program regenerates a new
set of 1,024 points and your edits are lost. If you need to use
dwell factors, add them before exporting.
Export
To export an Arbitrary wave pattern:
1. Select or create an Arbitrary wave pattern.
