Connecting Objects to Make a Program
This section introduces VEE programs. In Lab 1- 1, you will
create a VEE program, print the VEE screen, and save the
program to a file.
Lab 1-1 Display Waveform Program
A VEE program consists of VEE objects connected in an
executable object diagram. The following program displays a
waveform.
(If VEE is running, clear the workspace by clicking the New
button on the toolbar, or use File ⇒ New. Otherwise, start
VEE and continue.)
1 Document the program. Select Display ⇒ Note Pad and
place it at the top and center of the work area. Click on
the editing area to get a cursor. Remove any template
information you might have and then enter:
Display Waveform generates a cosine waveform
and sends it to a real time display.
You may have to size the Note Pad, depending upon the
screen. To size an object, open the object menu, select
Size, move the sizing arrow cursor to a corner of the
object and drag. You can also click and drag any corner of
the object.)
2 Add the Function Generator object. Select Device ⇒ Virtual
Source
⇒ Function Generator, position the outline on the left
side of the work area, and click to place the object. Edit
the frequency to 100 by clicking in the Frequency field
and typing 100.
3 Add the Waveform (Time) object. Select Display ⇒
Waveform (Time) and place the object to the right side of
the work area as shown in
