The Graphical Waveform Editor
3-76 AWG710&AWG710B Arbitrary Waveform Generator User Manual
Do the following steps to do a comparison math operation between two
waveforms:
1. If more than one window is open, select the source waveform as follows:
Push Window (bottom)!Window1, Window2, or Window3 (side).
2. Push Tools (bottom)!Compare... (pop–up)!OK (side).
The Compare dialog box appears.
3. Push either Data, Marker1 or Marker2 in the Target to specify the location
where you want to create the data.
4. Select the reference waveform in the With field.
5. Specify the amount of hysteresis in the Hysteresis field.
6. Push the OK side button to generate a pattern in the target edit area.
This pattern shows the result of the compare process.
Convolution...
The Convolution... command performs convolution for the active window’s and a
nonactive window’s waveforms and displays the result in the third window. There
are no restrictions on the data lengths of the two waveforms. For markers, the value
of current window is copied. If one or three windows are open, the operation will
not work.
Refer to Convolution on page F-4 for more information about convolution and
examples.
Convolution Dialog Box. The Convolution dialog box lets you set the second
waveform for the operation and the Periodic On/Off toggle. Table 3-15 describes
the Convolution dialog box parameters.
Do the following steps to perform a convolution math operation between two
waveforms:
1. If more than one window is open, select the source waveform as follows:
Push Window (bottom)!Window1, Window2, or Window3 (side).
Table 3-15: Convolution dialog box parameters
Parameters Descriptions
With Specifies the second waveform for the operation.
Treat waveform periodic Specifies whether the waveform must be regarded as periodic during
calculation.
