Basic Digital Operation (Option 651/652/654)Waveform File BasicsSee Also:• Adding Real–Time Noise to a Dual ARB Waveform on page 249• Real–Time Phase Noise Impairment on page 258• Multitone and Two–Tone Waveforms (Option 430) on page 295Waveform File BasicsThere are two types of waveform files:• A segment is a waveform file that you download to the signal generator.For information on creating and downloading waveform files, refer to the Programming Guide.• A sequence is a file you create in the signal generator that contains pointers to one or morewaveform files (segments, other sequences, or both).For information on creating sequences, see page 145.Signal Generator MemoryThe signal generator has two types of memory:• Volatile memory, baseband generator (BBG) media, where waveform files are played from oredited.• Non–volatile memory, either internal (int) or external (USB) media, where waveform files arestored.Dual ARB PlayerNOTEThe MXG’s ARB Waveform File Cache is limited to 128 files. Consequently, once the 128 filecache limit has been reached, the waveform switching speed will be much slower foradditional files loaded into the volatile waveform memory (BBG).The dual ARB waveform player enables you to play, rename, delete, store, and load (external orinternal) waveform files in addition to building waveform sequences. The dual ARB waveform playeralso provides markers (page 155), triggering (page 172), clipping (page 179), and scaling (page 188)capabilities.Most procedures in this section start from the Dual ARB menu, shown below.140 Agilent N5161A/62A/81A/82A/83A MXG Signal Generators User’s Guide
