MSEQuence:DEFine <step_number>, <sequence_number>

Both <step_number> and <sequence_number> are integers. Step

number may range from 1 through 16. Use ascending order when you

first program this table. Sequence numbers may range from 1 through

16 and can be used randomly within a table.

TIP

Every time that the MSEQ:DEF command is sent to the generator, it

attempts to rebuild the sequence table and re-generate the

sequence at the output. This process is taking a long time and

slows the download process. Therefore, it is recommended that

you use the MSEQ:DEF command in either Fixed or User modes

but not while you are in sequenced mode.

The sequence generator goes through its steps in descending order.

In continuous mode, the sequence is repeated automatically after

completing the last step. In Triggered mode, the output stops at the

last point of the last waveform in the sequence. In Gated mode, the

sequence is always completed after the gate stop signal.

In case you want to remove a step from the sequence table, use the

following command:

MSEQuence:DELete <n>

Where <n> is the step number to be removed from the sequence. To

wipe out the sequence table use the following command:

MSEQuence:DELete:ALL

CAUTION

MSEQ:DEL:ALL is destructive. Use this command with caution

because it will completely and irreversibly erase the sequence table

from the memory.

Advance

Commands

The way the instrument advances through sequence links and loops

and the source of the event causing sequence advance, can be

specified by the user. Use the following commands to control how a

single sequence advances through the sequence table steps:

SSEQuence:ADVance {AUTO | STEP | SINGle}
